To move right, simply follow the same procedure, but reverse the cyclic and rudder
movements (move cyclic right, apply right rudder).
Turning-
From forward flight-
Moving the cyclic control left, while applying a small amount of aft cyclic and
feeding in left "rudder", will cause the helicopter to make a coordinated turn to
the left. Right movement of the cyclic and rudder sticks will cause the heli to
turn to the right.
From a hover-
Use the rudder to rotate the nose of the helicopter in the direction you want.
Learning to fly a model helicopter is more difficult and challenging than any
other genre of radio control modeling, but is also the most rewarding as you
master the techniques required for sustained hover and forward flight.
Computer simulation of model helicopter flight is an excellent tool for learning
the basics and dramatically reducing the learning curve when you move on to
the actual model itself.
