EDIT: NEW HELICOPTER!! ///First real Heli Novice FP
Just got a real rc helicopter, nano sized. Only have experience flying those cheap 2 channel ones, but with a single rotor not the cx type.
Guy at hobby store got it trimmed out in 1 min, took it home and lost the settings trying to get the stupid battery pack in the remote. The trims are super loose. Then I'm trying to fly it in a room with about 5 feet by 3 feet of open area, which is super hard having no experience. Had the tail boom come loose which caused the rear to twist slightly, and saw I had the battery back to far, and the receiver came loose and was sitting sideways so after fixing that my trims are almost all centered.
Had it in a bigger room and can get it to hover but I run into problems with it either lifting or dropping, slightly but enough to loose control. It doesn't fly as good as the hobby store guy did it, he used mine but he was in a big space. can't do it outside as we have rain and alot of wind, but I can see this being fun outside in a grass field.
I'm now thinking I should of bought the CX type, he had it hovering without touching the remote. I wanted to fly this in the house but I'm wondering if I got the wrong type. Of course I've only flown it maybe a dozen times and can maintain hover for 1 min, go forward and sideways but only with the tail facing me, and in a room its alot harder to control right now. Still sort of goes in a wide circle but with the tail facing me, and the slightest adjustment really throws it off.
Already broke the tail rotor blade, cracked the main rotor and cracked the canopy. Luckily I bought a new tail rotor at time of purchase, and it came with an extra rotor but I glued and taped the cracked one for now, same with the canopy.
Here is a pic from the website
