2 Advanced practice
2.1 Frog-hopping practice
Repeat the take off and landing action using the throttle stick whilst maintaining a vertical path. Increase your
rate of ascent and descent gradually as you become more comfortable with the exercise. Be sure to slow
down in time when landing!

2.2 Controlled take off and landing practice
Mark out an area on the ground as a landing pad to help practice deliberately taking off and landing from a
set location. The process of take off and landing should be kept stable and as close to vertical as possible.
2.3 Square flight practice
Take the takeoff point as the center to draw a square whose side length is about 2 meters. Fly your helicopter
along the 4 sides and keep the flight height parallel to the line of sight. Make a 90 degree rotation at each
corner of the quadrangle to adjust the flight direction. Train your straight flight skills and 90 degree flight course
control. Fly in both directions around the circuit until familiar with the maneuver.
2.4 Figure eight practice
Once you have mastered the previous steps you can try flying smooth flat figure eights. Try to maintain the
same altitude during the entire flight path. Take care when flying where there is wind as it may cause the
helicopter to suddenly rise or fall unexpectedly.
