I FINALLY was able to do a good and convincing piro flip on my kraken 700 last weekend. About 10 feet off the ground. Did it for about 5 to 10 seconds. I wasn't even thinking about it, my brain and my thumbs were just in perfect sync and doing it. Surprised the hell out of me and some friends of mine. Took YEARS of practice. Felt like I hit a major milestone. :-)
This is a great video and clearly explained! Learned to fly in all orientations upright and inverted then moved to learning figure 8 piros CW and CCW upright and inverted, not much stationary piros like he explained...probably why I struggle a little keeping piro flips stationary. Then I was able to do pretty sloppy stationary piro flips CW and CCW. Travelling piro flips were a bit easier probably because of the figure 8 practice. Hoping to get them a bit tighter this flying season. I would like to learn how to do a proper chaos both directions eventually.
How did you learn to fly upside down all orientations? I know how to fly right side up all orientations and want to take that next step. Did you use a sim or wing it on your helicopter? I'm going to buy neXt sim and start flying upside down all orientations. My ultimate goal is to do some of these cool 3D maneuvers but I have to learn all of the fundamentals first
@@LichaelMewisthe cheapest way I know is to use SIM. Then do regular practice on it (10-20 mins per day or per sessions depending on your available time). You should see noticeable improvements after 3 weeks or so.
I want to know how many helis these pros have smashed before they got this good. I can do sloppy piropflips, but I've smashed a Trex 550 DFC, one Blade 300x, Four mPCXs, three nanos, and three goblin 500s in the process. I recently purchased Real Flight and AccuRC and refuse to physically touch a heli until I'm 100% confident. Unfortunately, it's so much harder when you're flying the real thing. Nerves always get me, especially when people are watching. You almost have to not care about smashing $2k.
I've gone through my share of bl2 and still can't do one .I need a sim or something ..,it seems I'm closer to doing one on my m2 than anything else but I've had to save it many times...I'm not crashing my m2 and 1 ..lol ..
Like Bert says , go slow….they’ve been flying for YEARS , and have been through a lot of parts I’m sure . This dude owns a servo company, so they’re in “ the business”. Keep at it .
Get an OMP M2 or similar, hit throttle hold before crashing, damage is minimal, repairs are easy and inexpensive. Builds confidence. Practice new moves in the sim then try it with small heli.
Thank you for showing fly 3d.i have a 3d heli 4pcs can not flying yet 3d five years ready want to ask 3d. swift is when start on start flying time on or go up only on or pleas answer to me thank you very much Mr.
So freaking hard man,,I can't fly invert tail in for some dumb reason but I can fly tail out inverted just like I was right side up..but I'm stuck here ,,need a sim bad ,but I think I e done good without one ..

How do you like your kraken? I can't decide if I want one or a RAW.
@@nightshadehelis9821 I still love my kraken, but I wanna get a Raw for my collection.
@@nightshadehelis9821 if your haven’t got one yet get the Raw, I came from the kraken and the Raw is so much better!
Great explanation and demonstration of piro flips! Super helpful, thank you!
This is the best explanation on the net.... thanks for the great tips.
You do a great job explaining these techniques! Thank you for doing these videos they are a great asset for us aspiring smackdown pilots!😎👍

You did an excellent job! Thank you I feel much more comfortable in what I'm doing thanks to you guys
That tip on using dual rates to eliminate variability in the piro speed is pure gold!
Bert, u are fantastic pilot!
The best lesson piroflips i`ve ever seen !!!!
Thx fo add. Grettings from Poland!
Great demo, I need to have a go at this. Thanks.
Amazing INFO!! Much appreciated!!
Thank you guys for posting. Found out on your podcast
When you can do a piro flip, you won RC helis!
Very nice explanation! Thank you

It's not just the money either it's sitting and repairing and setting it up each time 😂
Thank you for showing fly 3d.i have a 3d heli 4pcs can not flying yet 3d five years ready want to ask 3d. swift is when start on start flying time on or go up only on or pleas answer to me thank you very much Mr.
Missed first 3. How do I start this hobby?

That 250 heli at the beginning looks amazing, wonder whats that model
old flybarred trex 250
is it bad if i can only really fly with the tail spinning in one direction? i find it really hard to do maneuvers with cw rotation of the helicopter.
My Favorite Trick.... Feels like Forever ( ' ' ,)
Great stuff! Thanks
Good job!! Merci pour la qualité de tes explications !
YOU CAN GET MY RISE Please how we configure the 3D mode IN THE RADIO AND GYRO
well said sport..!
This is on mode 2 stick, and it seems a lot easier to do compared to mode 1. Any guidance on mode 1?
Yes, relearn to fly on mode 2.
Most of the people in my club have done that and wished they did it earlier.
These were the days! What is Bert doing these days?
I own BK Hobbies (bkhobbies.com) as well as various brands within the hobby. Indeed those were very fun days.
@@BertKammerer Hats off to continued success and maybe some rebirth to some hobby past favorites.
@@neilgreene Thank you Neil!
So freaking hard man,,I can't fly invert tail in for some dumb reason but I can fly tail out inverted just like I was right side up..but I'm stuck here ,,need a sim bad ,but I think I e done good without one ..
My brain hurts now 😩
Lol yup
Gotta admit, I'm startin' to miss the ol' flybar.
This Adds a Lot to my 3d. Going to try it one day. Thanks Bert. 72320247a.
A flybar in 2018? Respect!
lol this is old, they reuploaded it in 2018
I think I am going to need a bigger brain
Everyone else:. 'amazing explanation, thanks!'
Me having watched it 3 times: 'Er wot?'
Practice many sessions on sim before doing it for reals.
