I have an aerobird challenger i got for my birthday 2 years ago that i dont use very much, but recently i've been wanting to get back into it. the only down side is that if i crash it bad enough it's $150 down the drain. i like playing flying video games, but the thing is the controls on the video games use 2 sticks to control where the planes go, and the one for my plane only has one control stick.

and im not too great when it's flying towards me cause im not used to the controls being backwards....yeah

so any tips would be great.



Answer
Practice, Practice, Practice!!!

Seriously, that's the best way to improve, and you will be surprised at how quickly you get used to controlling the plane when it's flying towards you.

You can't use your video game experience well here. This is because you are NOT in the pilot's seat, you're standing outside the plane, and the direction you move the control stick to turn right changes based on the direction the plane is pointing.

Imagine that, when you move the stick, a tiny pilot in the plane is being told where to go. When you and the plane are facing the same direction, when you move the stick right, you are telling the pilot to turn right.

If the plane if facing towards you, when you move the stick to the right, you are telling the pilot to turn LEFT. Picture him holding your control stick in the cockpit. He's going to move the stick to the right when you move it to the right, and if he's facing you, he will move to HIS right, not your right.

If you practice flying, you'll get used to this. You can try turning so your chest is always facing the same direction as the nose of the plane, and look over your shoulder until you get used to it.

Other advice for flying these things is to go easy on the controls. Many video gamers over-control their RC planes- instead of moving the stick ALL THE WAY in one direction, just move it a tiny little bit, and that should be enough. The key to flying RC's is small, gentle, smooth movements- if you jerk the stick back and forth, it will lose control and crash.

Oh yeah, and fly close to the ground until you get used to it. A 10-foot crash could break your $150 airplane. Fortunately I was able to learn this lesson on a $40 helicopter.

Where can I find an wireless camera transmitter and reciver for a 1/10 scale Traxxas Slash RC car?

I would like to get an on-board camera that transmits to a wireless screen so if I am at a park or something, I can see where my RC car is even if it is far away. If you know where I could find one, please let me know. Thanks!

hobbytron:

Looks like these are good for the RC vehicle. You just need to fabricate a mount for the camera. Enjoy.
