This should be a little easier than the figure 8 and Triple B,s Landing and take off challenges and it may or may not encourage more video post's. Not Piro's, these are small controlled circles in a small area. Give it a try ! What the hell !

Im a little past radds turn tail and run UT. but what I meant is a circle is really committing you have to fly through it its all orientations in a split second and the challenge is low to the ground in a confined space good thing is its both sticks going in the same direction.

i will do it but not as low into the ground. at least in the first tries. i never tried it before so better be careful =)

My wife hasn't had the opportunity to video any of my recent flights, so I had to go back to my video archive to find a flight in which I am performing circles. Anyway, I'm flying a Honey Bee FP (stock blades, motors and rate gyro) in this video. I perform plenty of circles, along with some larger oval shaped circuits, as well. A few times I flew the heli rather close to the camera operator, but like the real trooper she is, my wife just keeps on recording. These circuits aren't the smallest, but I'm in control nevertheless. Doug, you have already seen this video because you commented on it. Anyway, I hope this qualifies.

YEP , That qualifies Ya gadda love the simplicity of the Micro machines and they really do fly and certainly are controllable in the right hands.
