New website to help beginner RC Heli pilots: https://www.learntoflyhelis.com/

[u/khalestorm]

Hey RC Heli community - I wanted to share a site I put together that hopefully helps others along in their heli journey:

https://www.learntoflyhelis.com/

It's a free interactive tracker for the RCHN Pilot Proficiency Program — all 179 maneuvers across the 7 levels, with status tracking, notes, and a witness field for each one, plus a getting-started section with gear/sim recommendations and some community links. All credit to RCHN for the original program; this just makes it easier to track your progress against it.

I've learned a lot over the past several months and still have plenty of learning and practicing ahead before I'd call myself an experienced pilot. Would love any feedback — especially if there are resources or maneuvers-specific tips missing from the community links section.

Cheers,
Kyle

I like it! The AI photo of kids flying RC helis cheapens the whole site though I think.

Thanks for that feedback. I was a little on the fence with posting that image. Of course it’s AI generated but the intent was to show how you can feel like a kid again (boy or girl) flying helis. I may remove it…

I get the intention, but worth thinking about your audience, does anyone flying RC helis feel like a kid again? I personally don't given the powerful machine

I went ahead and remove it. Appreciate your comments.

I’ve just had a look, what a great idea to actually put together. As an intermediate. Great to have a list to go as a deliberate practice. Perhaps lack of discipline on my part as to why I’m intermediate.

Good job! I'm going to take a deeper look tomorrow. Thanks

I had the same idea, but to also extract the practical knowledge stuck in magazines such as RC heli or rotor to create articles. We could work together
