I hate changing the subject but what impresses me most about those RC drones is the fantastic job of stabilization that has been accomplished with several tiny slivers of vibrating piezoelectric material used as rate gyros.

Will you lower the props to the c/g? reducing the "shuffle"
Helicopters with the tail rotor above the c/g will input a rolling action with peddle inputs and abrupt torque changes - Starts PIO with some pilotsMay I ask a question for those like me who are ignorant?
What is the shuffle?

What is the shuffle?
Does "Shuffle" refer to the required adjustment on the other three controls in a heli that need adjusting when the pilot moves the first one of those four controls?
Is this in all phases of flight?
Or, like in this case where the main rotors lost power, you had to overcome the sudden power loss & torque being removed because of an equipment failure, & not something you initiated?
In watching your video, it appears that the collective arm moves down @ a split second after the mains lost their torque?
Please excuse my ignorance, as I've never had the controls of a heli completely in flight, only the cyclic, while the pilot maintained control of the other three, & that was while moving forward @ speed. So, for that one time, it just felt like flying a gyro's cyclic as I made turns.
So much is going on , With time all of this becomes second nature like breathing .
