Thanks for all the advice. I'm definetly going slow trying to follow Radd's school of flying and having fun. I'm at the point where you get it really light on the skids and run it around the floor. I find that tough to do since you have to add a lot of stick movement which I don't feel simulates real flying too well. It also tough to scoot it around the floor when it tends to drift forward-left quite a bit (not the nose, the whole heli, I got the gyro dialed in I think). Its one of those things where you don't know exactly when your ready to try flying?

One other questions. How do you all attach your batteries? I've got 2 batteries and I've tried using different types of sticky-back Velcro but none of it stays stuck to the plastic of the heli...need some suggestions.
