How to do a flip / roll on a quadcopter
#1
[Image: hqdefault.jpg]

I still remember how excited I was when I first learned to do a flip on my quadcopter! I managed to get it right with the cost of breaking a couple of booms and many many props, but it's all worth it.

For example this is how I do a flip, same applies to roll:

  1. Generally you punch the throttle to get some upward acceleration
  2. Reduce throttle a little and give hard roll (push roll stick all the way to the end in whichever direction)... 
  3. Once the quad has turn NEARLY complete the flip (360 degree), recover roll stick position and throttle up again to recover
Be prepared to crash, and breaking things... but eventually you will master it!

Do it over tall grass the first few times

I suggest doing it in LOS first, once you mastered the sequence of sticks changes, then move on to FPV and it gets easier.

Here is a video of Flitetest demonstrating how to do it... pretty useful:
