Crashflow has it about nailed too. He was doing them over and over rubbing it in that I do my pop tops the other way.
I remember watching that bone doc video a LOT. Must be why I do my rollers better rolling left as well, just easier for me to steer them.

I'm a right roller, I can do anything rolling to the right....I've really been working hard at going left and can do okay but I sometimes get bassed akwards quick. I think being able to roll to the left also helps on torque rolls which I suck at....people give me crap cause I can do all these fancy rolling maneuvers but can't torque roll. I think though with anything, the answer is at the bottom of your gas can like @Astrohog just said. My goal for the next few months is to get better at torque rolls and force myself to get as good rolling left as I can right.

Heres a video my wife shot and I'm open for anybodies critique!

Is there anything the EF 104 can't do??? I doubt it! Amazing plane. I find myself saying....... "I can't believe I just did that" and....
"What the hell did I do to do that!?" lol


Nice vid @jhelber08

Sounds like our problems would be solved with a 104, eh? Would love one but... the price, oh my...

A bit pricy indeed. They do fly very well. And now Terry's Viper ST coming out as an ARF from PAU!
If you want to fly the best it is going to cost. All top tier 35 centers are a buck and a quarter give or take.

Stuff like this leaves me with such a "Is this real!?" kind of feeling. How the hell do you teach this??? Got to be born with it???
Stick banging at its best with an airframe not as noteworthy as others but left me with my jaw to the floor:trance:

I understand that and I am fine with that. I am content with my AW freestyle 260 30cc plane right now and if your willing to pay a bit you can get a nice flyer in the 30cc range it seems. I know it's not as good as 100cc size frame but I'm lovin mine for what it is. Seems capable of all the maneuvers in the book, except for the fact that it all happens faster.
