Do you have any tips for learning rewinds?  I am struggling to do even basic sideways rewinds in Liftoff and outside I wouldn't dare currently.

I always forget to try things I've seen in a youtube video by the time I go to fly and usually remember it halfway through my last pack. But as far as tips, have you ever seen No Talk Trick Tutorials on YT? This guy does a pretty smart way of showing the sticks up front and center in his edits. Here is his channel with "rewind" as a query:

I was trying to do this last night, and I kept ending up in the bush in front of my house, or upside down in the grass.

It’s probably not the type of tip you’re looking for, but my tip is to try to do it around a pole or something while you’re learning, not a bush or tree.

The two times where I was remotely successful, I noticed that it takes much quicker stick movements than I expected.

Edit- I was trying to do the side lock rewind, not the sideways rewind.

Yeah i've been watching the headmazta videos. Been trying for just the standard sideways rewind. Sidelock and Split-S are well a bit too advanced I think.

I was practicing the side lock rewind on my jitterbug build last night. It’s… hard.

I kept forgetting to give it a throttle blip on my approach, which resulted in a whole bunch of ground taps.

I’ll hafta take a look at the sideways rewind.
