getting there! :)

I am getting much much better on inverted hovers on my mcpx now.. tail in only yet... nose in and 90 degree orientations are still a bit screwy.. but my tail in inverted are good! , I can do full batteries on inverted hovers on it in wondy conditions.. ... I am excited about this. I am gonna try it on my 450.. the thrasher, now that its working. I am also trying backward flight, i am slow at that... i know stick movements, but just how much still needs a tweak.

Its been very pleasant and windy here... windy enough that i tried to fly my parkzone ultra micro sukhoi and it basically slammed itself and broke a bunch of its foam.. so the mcpx does good in inverted hovers and forward flights, but my tail is not able to hold very well in windy conditions going backwards..

I tried to find the new tail blades for mcpx, but apparently they are backordered, so i am not getting a lit of practice on backwards flight.. I am still trying.. It might also be my inputs... So, I am trying to practice a lot on my mcpx.. and with the turnigy batteries on the way i'll have 5 300mah batts and 4 200mah ones.. making it run like about 40 of flight time..

If there is any wind, backwards flying is almost out the window with the MCPX. Strange you started with tail in Inverted. I started with nose in?? Each to there own.

Right, with tail in, the elevator is reversed, and the ailerons are correct. I tried that at the field and almost hit the presedent of the club with it hahaha. He had asked me if it could roll inverted instead of flipping inverted, I said yup, hold my beer and watch this...
