Hi Brian-

Glad to hear you got it up and going. I just crashed my heli yesterday. First crash that actually did a little damage. I had a bent flybar and decided to take it outside anyways and put it into the ground about 8 feet up. Shattered both blades, wrecked the canopy and the flybar case. About $20 damage. Nothing too bad other than the downtime. I'm getting pretty good at hovering and basic flying around. The collective pitch takes a little getting used to. Way different than my fixed pitch heli but way more fun with a real heli now.

I've been downloading a lot of videos off Bob White's helifreak.com site. Great site with alot of info. It's more geared towards the Align heli's but my heli is real close to the Align trex 450.

When learning 3D stuff, which is probably the easiest trick to do, rolls ??
