Was holding short once for a while waiting for a guy to backtrack and observed one of these with a student trying to learn hovering above grassy patch of the AD.
I swear they nearly buried the back end into the dirt a couple of times. Must have been inches away.
No thanks, I'll stick to my fixed wing...
Since you seem, from your own writing quoted above, to only have ONE wing... watch out for a likely spin!!!
You've got a point though... sticking to a rotary wing is much more of a headache!!!... As well as gravity you also have to fight centrifuge force, hence needing good nails to grab your blade...
