E-flight Blade CP

[jmarzilli]

Yesterday I bought a Blade CP. I've never flown a heli before so this is very challenging. Just wondering if you guys have any tips on flying cause I can't get this thing to hover very good. Also, is the Blade CX more suited for beginners.

Rotorhead looks like he might have some good advice on flying a 'copter with a tail motor. The CX is a coaxial design, with two sets of blades spinning in the opposite direction, so there's no tail motor. It's a different animal and is the extent of my heli experience. For now . . . <eg>
