In this video Nate practices flipping an RC helicopter and working on some RC heli tricks. This RC heli is the Blade 230 S, and it is looking to be the RC helicopter that Nate has made the most improvement on with his RC helicopter flying skills. Let us know what you think of the RC heli in the comments.

You ready Yep yeah I've made a little bit of Progress in the helicopter world and It's more than I thought I could I can Kind of roll stuff over and not lose a Ton of altitude and I've flown this off Camera more than I've flown really Anything probably ever and that's like Nine flights so I've and it's been in a Lot of wind that I've done that this is A ready toly blade 230s I mean some People might laugh that this is the Thing I'm flying and trying to learn on Some people might think this is the Perfect helicopter to learn on in fact It's recommended by some friends of mine Ethan was the one that made a good Recommendation for me to fly this um I Feel really good about it so far it's Been really fun progress and today's the Least amount of wind I've had to fly With it my goal cuz I try to set a goal Every time I fly uh when I and I try to Push myself especially I'm flying off Camera or and that never happens we've Been talking about that a lot lately my Goal for today is to try to fly it Inverted and hover it for like 2 seconds To to not just flip it but to get it Upside down and keep it upside down for Some amount of time and it's a good day To try it so I just I just got done Crashing a $600 jet let's see how this Goes you know bad things happen in
Threes right no not always sometimes one But a lot of times if it happens in a Two there's a third one there's a third Is that how it bad things can happen Just one shush Shush this is what you get for saying You had a dilemma God's solving your Dilemma if you guys saw that yes for you Yes well it's an Instant your pride and your confidence Is down after a crash like that but I Know it wasn't my fault so I got to keep Reminding myself that crash from the jet Was not my fault uh what I was kind of Making fun of me and I just want to say This to be clear Um This God doesn't take up a lot of space So I don't have a problem with it has Its own box a little box you know folds Up like to bring it home today like the Video here we go let go getting back on The horse right from a jet crash to a Helicopter Takeoff he right now it's actually in Safe as it spools up because I want to Flip it one time and then I'm going to Try to try to put it upside down keep it Upside down land it in one piece not put It upside down should do a couple flips Before you so there's out of Safe all right there's one let's go Forward no let's get it back over here Safe on practice a little bit before you
Go right into it so the problem with Transitioning out of safe and into safe Is you kind of need to throttle up some When you get back into safe otherwise it Feels like it's like underpowered and Twists around a little bit that's Something that I've learned and the Transition what's the flight time on This 4 minutes maybe so ready Yep back safe on okay so here's what I Want to do we're just going to about Right Here we're going I'm getting a little Breeze now let's let's go for it ready Yep upside down hovering hovering Hovering and back over that was more Than two seconds yeah I know isn't that Cool good job that's the most I've ever Hovered anything inverted that felt Amazing and I'm still out of Safe the Goal is to try to keep it out of Safe We'll try that Again that was really cool that's the Best I've ever done with a helicopter Ever in 10 years of remember our Familyes not my not our family anyways Golf course our Golf Course days anybody Remember that was it were those drones You were flying upside down because I Thought you were flying a helicopter Upside down back then I've done a little Bit of drone inverted and I did a a Little uh B good special ready to fly thing and I
Flew it upside down but it wasn't that Long and it definitely wasn't that uh Comfortable and Confident so let's let's do a flip cuz I Just I remember that when you talk about Flying inverted that's what I Remember that was years ago that's prek Kids ooh that one looked good thank you Cuz I didn't lose any altitude it's a Throttle management when you do that Okay ABY was looking at my Controller did you get that last flip That I did I got it I'm good I don't Have to look at what I'm doing I just Point It she can follow it with sonar I do Like it's definitely to the left it's You know notice how much lower I've it's Close you ready I's See yeah see when you when I can film The Hillside and with your flip then you Know you're getting low so one thing About the Telemetry on this helicopter It shows that I'm down to 25 % but guys Have said you can fly like half the Flight at 25% so we'll do like two more Flips and then we'll land it and maybe I'll just let's go invert it again here Okay let's try it cuz the wind died Down uhuh he can't Talk brain hurts so much recovery Without keeping St you know Nate is Really focused when he not talking hey
That was I think almost 10 seconds by The way really inverted I think so jez Okay see the front [Applause] Flo you're at like 3 and a half minutes Maybe not sure it feels okay let's do uh Let's do one more flip and try to Recover it not with safe and then land It um out of Safe okay so no safe we're going to land It without using safe my another goal I Want to do is to have a whole flight Without using safe at all so that's Something in the future I'd like to do This is definitely the most progress I've ever had with a helicopter oops It's okay it's okay and then easy Throttle hold right there because if you Just do if you Throttle Down yeah it Pushes the helicopter down that's how I'm flying um inverted okay so when you Push the helicopter upside down I have Throttle hole so when it's not on safe Down would be so right right down is Up And Up Is Down happy place and yeah so From this is kind of like zero throttle Okay and then that's normal throttle and Then when you're inverted if you want to Fly up you actually push this down so Here's my question how that doesn't like That's not springloaded right so how do You know I thought you had thr hold On I thought you had it on so like how Do you know you're at exact center it's
A feel really oh my gosh if it's I think I thought that was spring loaded no it's Not so yeah it's and it's actually not Perfectly in the middle it's more like 40% really yeah so when I was inverted I'm at like 40% throttle and if I need It to go up some cuz that one still Spring loaded but I thought that one Would be too wow oh my gosh good job Mate thanks what I've been trying to do Is I I only have two batteries that are This size I think they're out of stock I Need like two more maybe you just flying One today right yeah I only I only had Time to charge One battery cuz I charged Two batteries for my jet jet the jet is Still dead on the hill up there we got To go recover it so this you know every Now and then we get lucky and we can do Two videos at once that was fun guys Will ask do I have any simulator Time Zero I don't fly I mean probably two Minutes ever on a simulator because I Just every good 3D helicopter pilot and I don't think I'm ever going to be that Good uh says they credit their skills That I've talked to to the simulator so I'm going to strongly encourage you do What the pros say but for me it's just Not the same I I know it'll build muscle Memory for certain Maneuvers and there Are some things that I'm not going to be Able to learn probably although 3D Pilots existed before simulators existed
Uh I probably would learn faster if I Used the simulator but I just don't have Time is really the big excuse to fly on The simulator so I have to think about How to do that maneuver think think Think think think for a couple hours and Then just go try it in the 4 minutes of Flight that I have and I probably have Maybe 12 flights on this now this being Like the 12th flight um and some and Like three of those now you guys have Seen so I really only have like nine Flights off camera if that maybe seven Um and that was the first time going Inverted and holding it I practiced Flips off camera but I haven't practiced Inverted so now what I'll try to do if I Can is and I come up here and do like an Airplane video or something I'll bring This to with two charged batteries and If if I have the time I'll try to Practice holding inverted on it a little Bit and um I don't know what the next Thing is I need to learn but maybe let Me know in the comments because I I need To hear it from you and then what guys Have been doing is telling me kind of How to do it in the comments that makes Sense to me I think about it and then I Try it so that worked that was really Fun I like that flight mode I like this Helicopter I've learned and progressed Way more on this helicopter than Anything else ever uh and I've also
Crashed one of these by doing just a Stupid thing a year or two ago so like Everybody crashes so today's been a very Mixed emotion kind of day I just put a $600 jet in the ground not happy about That it's somewhere up there we're about To go get it go get it movie magic Things get filmed out of order and you Will have seen you will have seen the Results of that already it's probably Demolished I there was a heavy Jet and It came down hard I think that time Wasn't my fault because everything Checked out on the ground it was in safe When that crashed and anyway we'll talk About that in that jet video this will Be linked in the description box below If you want to buy one of these try Progressing on it as well uh it does Help to support our Channel and our Family if you use that link and I'm Going to encourage you guys to sign up For AMA while we're at it because I'm Pushing myself to progress in something Way out of my comfort zone and and when I do that I'm really glad I have Ama and For me even though I just crashed that Jet I feel really good about the Progress I know I heard a plane of this Helicopter um and I get one little extra Boost of confidence which helps a lot Because I fly with AMA so we'll have Them Linked In the description box below Too I want to say massive thanks to God
I it's a cloudy day but there's low Winds and I had a nice fun helicopter Flight and I'm not going to beat myself Up too bad about that I'm I am very sad About the jet but things happen and I'm Still just happy about the day in General um who knows maybe that'll be a Blessing in disguise in some way but I'm Grateful to God for today and uh just Thankful to you guys as well I want to Say a massive thanks to our patreon Supporters as this Guy maybe cires I think he's just Passing over he's just passing over on This cloudy day you got to fly a little Lower like that right but I want to say Massive thanks to our patreon supporters For uh supporting our Channel we Couldn't do what we do as often as we do It without your amazing support I don't Have a lot of good progress in Helicopters but I made a good chunk of Progress in the last video we did with This so we'll have a handpicked Helicopter video popping up right about Now thanks for watching see you then bye
