Ok so I pressed, pressed and pressed again and all that happened was a noticeable vibration of the helicopter. This was is followed by a rolling tendency and then the nose pitched up and then the vibration became worse and eventually I lost control and crashed. Any ideas?

New Challenge!
This time try and see how far you can get laterally before returning and making a safe landing.
I just got out to 1782 to the 'West' but ran out of fuel within about 3 inches of the pad!
I'm not sure whether the trick is to use lots of little bursts of power or less, longer bursts.
More flight testing is required I feel.
Ppruners, over to you!

Ps. Yes, I am still bored but going home now. I'll see how you all got on later!
