Dismount Auto Rotation

[flyalan]

Did my first autorotation today! Got it on the ground softly and tipped over on its side. Popped a link. Spooky!😁

Congrats! Keep at it. It does get easier :-)

I think I came down to slow. Ran out of head speed. It was a rush! My thought was to try it at the end of the season so if I killed it I would have to rush it back together.

I pulled off my first dismount loops this week.  Lots of fun!

[Barry Tilson]

Crazy! When do you hit throttle hold with a dismount auto? Sounds like the power is on right till the end? Or is that just the overspeed?

[Mark Burberry]

Overspeed...

[Darren Lee]

Yep, hit throttle hold upstairs just like a normal auto.  Only difference is you descend as fast as possible to provide extra headspeed during the flare.

That whole dismount auto rotation deal has yard sale written all over it for someone like me.

I'm going to move on to autorotation #2 before trying the dismount type!

LOL that heli sounds like it's about ready to explode!

I remember Matt doing a version of these with his N5C at a fun fly in Cincinnati two years ago.  He would come down nose first vertically just screaming and then would kill the engine and pop the machine over in a mini loop for a landing.  Was wild.......
