Hence the laziness and lack of discipline and wanting instant gratification continues to grow. My middle son is that way. If it takes a little discipline to learn he wants nothing to do with it. I think it is being taught in school. Another generation or two and we will be like the people in Wall-E.

Easy now. There's a whole world of tinkering that may not be for you, but for someone into electronics or whatever it's a whole new fascinating aspect of the hobby.

gyros are cool if you like to tinker with that sort of thing, but to learn 3D, start with a sim, then get working on a foamie that you can fly in the front yard. Somewhere along the way you'll need to make heavy use of the left thumb, and I haven't found anything that teaches that better than a well-balanced PBF - they're nearly indestructible too.
When those 3 start to get repetitive and a little boring, keep flying them, and start building your Mojo60, EE60, LamYak, etc profiles... -Case |

Aint nutin wrong with a stabilizer. I have a Hanger 9 Tango electrified that I have never liked because of it's flying charactaristics. No mater what programing I did in the radio I could never get it to fly nice. This past weekend I installed one of these $18.00 stabilizers from Hobby King (http://hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store...strSearch=stab) in it just to see what it would do. I was happy with it's performance. That plane is actually fun to fly now.

As for as 3 axis stabilization...go for it, if you like...nothing wrong with it. You might even win a prestigious competition with it one day. There are a few guys here trying it out. I've flown their planes with the system "on" and then with the system "off". Personally I don't like the way it "feels" but I can see certain situations where it could be a good thing. In the end it really is about enjoyment however you get it. |

the trick to having good results with a gyro is to have a stick-to-gain mix. if you have the stick much past about 15% deflection... the gain oughta be really low....
I have considered a throttle to gain mix as well.... High power rarely needs a high gain.... . . |

The Demon Cortex doesn't feel like flying a gyro like some of the others I've messed with.
It feels like taking a plane that's a handful and making it feel like a really good flying plane. |

I don't use gyros in my 3D planes.

You have EF planes... they don't need a gyro!!
but some of the Tippy Rock crap sold can benefit fromm a gyro... for "Joe Sport Flier" who ain't never gonna do no competition... strategically implemented gyros can put TR's, hovers and Harriers within the grasp of the average pilot.... . . |

Thanks for the input. Maybe it will be the one I'll try in helis as I haven't gone flybarless yet... Actually haven't done much with helis in a while...this system just might get me fired up again...one day...
