Hi there make sure your swash plates are together - that is the the 2 plates that should be pushed gently so they are contacting each other. Once you have done this - when u first put your helicopter on you should check the servos and make sure that when you push the throttle up (before the red and green light stops flashing on your helicopter receiver -about 5 secs). When throttle is pushed up you should see the blades twist very slightly - this is the lifting mechanism which helps the helicopter go upwards. Then start to throttle up gently until the helicopter starts trying to twist a little on the ground then adjust the tail rotor so that it stays as still as it can - and slowly keep throttle going until you see it trying to lift off - and now you can keep throttling up until it lifts off but if youthink it may be going to crash start throttling down again before impact to save damage to the chopper.hope this helps...
