Shuttles ain't made for low rolls
by Rodney
(Omagh )
After a few flights on my Trex 600 nsp and getting over my first rolls and loops I had the bug to do more and learn the whole 3D thing in 1 day.
The battery in the Trex started to get low so it went on the charger, standing around idle I thought of a few flights on my trusty old Shuttle; with the Shuttle in the air and some fast circuits done the urge came on to try and loop it...
With the loop going ok, of course it was time to attenpt a roll - now all of you know the Shuttles are no power house with the OS32, so I set the chopper up coming down wind as fast as it would go, put the input in to roll it, it got inverted ok but the engine loaded up, head speed dropped and in a split second my trusty Shuttle was eating the dirt.
My stupidity. And this (see pic above) is what I ended up with.
