| Re: Squirrel in the road Hi Bigpyroo fella,
I have also experienced this problem whilst in the earlier learning stages. It does happen to a lot of heli pilots and even car drivers. In fact if I think about it I have had the same thing whilst driving my real car. You know when that dog walks out in front of you as your driving and you dont know whether to go right or left and you and up doing neither but the brakes save the day.
In the hobby we refer to this as the lock out moment, It is then followed by the why didn't I just do this moment. As you suddenly think of an even easier way to avoid the situation you got into. When you get more experienced it is amazing because your thumbs seem to react before you actualy start to worry about the situation your in. many times I have thanked the the lord for the sim for teaching me the correct reaction to a problem first and then for Keeping me sharp enough to react when I have needed to.
Your not allone here.
Hope your heli wasnt too badly damaged and that your back up hovering again soon.
