Hi, I thought that
since we are getting
close to XMas I
would do something
in this spirit...I
used the Fliteshcool
tubes as a frame on
which I attached the
Christmas tree
lights. The effect
in darknesss is
super with the heli
flying.
On the heli-pad is
my LH 6996 and in
flight the LH
Pro..the challenge
is more to fly
between the wires!

letters to follow

The Fish Tank A
nice shot of the
Litehawk manoeuvring
over the fish tank.
One would think the
fish wouldn't like
it, but they
actually follow the
heli closely.

Spinning Hoop

WINNER For
November
2011!!!!
"So I wanted to
add a bit of a
story for fun to
this months
entry, et voila.
I also decided I
would paint the
three
helicopters I
was using, which
turned out to be
a bad idea. See
- I didn't test
fly the XL
before I started
the video, and
when it came
time to fly,
well it didn't.
Not very well at
least. Due to
all the layers
of paint it was
like controlling
an RC rock! My
XL didn't
survive the
experience very
well, so I'm
glad part of our
prize for
entering
includes some
parts :D. Hope
you enjoy."

for November 2011.
I created a vertical
obstacle course with
some kitchen
cabinets modules
that I'm making. I
take off at the
bottom and (try to)
work my way to the
top, first is the
horizontal red loop.
Then the glowing
loop next is under
the blue half loop
and over the red one
this one is tough.
Then the blue and
lastly the white one
and touch down at
the top. It's
challenging being so
close to walls and
roofs but I managed
to make it to the
top once. |

Well guys this one
was fun. The
balloons were
neutral floating and
drifted with the
household air
currents . We made a
game out of it, blue
team and red team.
Get points for going
through your
opponents hoop or
you defend your hoop
by blowing your
balloons away from
your opponent. The
balloons are very
robust , whalloped
into them lots and
only broke one.
Lasted over a week
(actually still
going just holding
up a little less.). |

Jacques D
entry for November
2011. Picture
1: The course. There
are vertical loops
attached to the
ceiling, a
half-circle on the
right wall and a
quarter-circle going
from the left wall
to the ceiling. I
also added a special
"Hoola-hoop" from
the family's
personal collection.
The Fliteschool
container is partly
blocking the
hoola-hoop. In order
to reach the helipad
located on the left
room floor, we must
fly close to the
ground below the
red/white tube and
use the mirror to
view the landing
site. The mirror
makes the landing
difficult as the
controls are
reversed. Picture 2:
In action, aiming
for the red hoop.
Picture 3: Approaching the half-circle. A tough maneuver so close to the wall. We can see the helipad in the mirror. |

Justin C (Forum
Member Liteyourhawk) entry for
November 2011. The
course starts off
with 3 regular loops
where you must
change your altitude
a bit, not much
special. But then
with a bit of
halloween theme, you
must fly through the
skeleton hoop, make
a hard right turn
through the very
tough horizontal
hoop, and fly back
down through it, and
finally go forwards
and land on the
ledge-landing pad. |

Antony P
entry for October
2011. I found that
using chained
elastics instead of
string (when hanging
multiple loops
together) worked
well from keeping
them from spinning
all over the place
when you miss a
hoop. Less down time
when waiting for it
to stop spinning! |

| Bruce F entry for October 2011. O.K. Hello all. No one has entered in Oct. Fliteschool yet so maybe I'll start it, and EVERYbody else can just jump right in and enter too. It's Hallaween this month so that had to be the theme. Starts at the Pumpkin landing Patch, Through an Anthony P. half hoop, up through hoop one, hard right through hoop two, avoid the ghosts, skeletons, spiders(espesially the webbing) and the tree. Then back through the half hoop and land. It took awhile...Lol. | ||

entry for September
2011. "This course
starts with the
uniquely designed
"loop hat". After
that you must fly
downwards through a
horizontal hoop into
a vertical one. The
final stretch
consists of a
vertically hung hoop
with a sudden death
drop into a
horizontal hoop hung
from the vertical
hoop! |

| Anthony P entry for September 2011 "I really like hovering the heli really low on the ground/near objects and trying to maintain control, so I build a course around that! So you start on top of the entertainment unit, and have to fly down very close beside it! (first image). You then make a sharp right turn and do some slalom style low hovering! (second image). Then lastly, you must turn right and climb through a normal hung loop, before landing on the heliplate (third image). | ||
