2.7 Yaw Turns
Condition(s):
1.
Syma X5 with remote control bound
Standard(s):
1.
Perform a smooth, continuous ascent to a hover
2.
Establish and maintain hover altitude of 1m ± ½ m
3.
Stop at desired heading ± 10 degrees
Crew Actions:
Pilot on the Controls:
1.
Announce direction of Yaw Turn Prior to turning (e.g.
“Aircraft Nose Right” or “Aircraft Nose Left”)
Visual Observer:
1.
Assist Pilot on the Controls by confirming that no other
flight crew is attempting to bind a remote control to a
Syma X5
Procedure:
The Pilot on the Controls will apply pressure on the pedals in
the direction of desired yaw. The Pilot on the Controls will
return the pedals to the spring-loaded neutral position by
relaxing pressure on the pedals just prior to reaching desired
heading. Remember that the thumb travels along an arc
because it is attached to the hand. When the Pilot on the
Controls moves the thumb to the left the thumbs natural
tendency is to increase throttle and the aircraft will climb. The
opposite is true, if the thumb moves to the right, the thumb will
tend to travel down and the aircraft will descend. The Pilot on
the Controls must consciously and actively overcome the
tendency to climb in a left turn and descend in a right turn.
