Default RE: Help with HUMMIGBIRD

Hi,
I hadn't intended to start a "how quick I learned, so how great am I" thread.
I should point out that my first heli was used and the tail motor burned out in a week. Replaced that only to have the main motor follow suit. As a mature student I have other commitments which take priority over my new hobby. Without the time available to concentrate on this hobby I nearly gave up completely on two occasions in the first three months. However I eventually managed to find the time over a free two week period to give 100% of my time, result..... a stable hover in a tiny training area.
I only point out my elongated learning curve to give hope to others.

I currently own 5 micro helicopters, the latest is a Hornet 2. I'm about to join my local club and take the exams to get qualified.
If I can do it so can anyone. You just need to devote the time and effort.
