Just how big a concern would VRS be for the P3? I have definitely noticed wobbling while descending relatively slowly. I have since been afraid to lower in quickly or even at a brisk pace.
How slowly are you descending? When coming straight down, I never have a problem if I descend at 2 MPH.
You need to beware of VRS.
You can fly out of it.I have wobbled at 6mph or so. Is it possible to get completely stuck in VRS or can you usually just fly forward?
So my technique of dropping in fast to 50 feet and then slowing down is okay?You can get out of it IF you have enough altitude. It will come down quickly when it gets into VRS. And it will continue to lose altitude as you punch out sideways. And adding power often will only make it worse until you're fully clear of it. Telltale signs are the side to side thrashing, like a tank slapper on a motorcycle.
I will certainly not attempt that... Yet!Depends entirely on how good you are at punching out and your path through the wind. Practice at higher altitudes would be my recommendation.
On other platforms that have manual mode, some people dump to manual and go into an almost free fall. But that's with lots of altitude to spare. Not for the faint of heart.
You'd need a manual mode first.I will certainly not attempt that... Yet!
