Ok im back from flying my 1st heli for the 1st time. Anyway needless to say if you dont have RealFlight G3.5 GO GET IT!!!!! I practiced on RealFlight a week prior to getting the heli, anyway i was able to do 10-15 sec hovers with out too much difficulty and went through a whole battery, some 5-6 foot hovers with no crash, or even close to one for that matter. I think im officially hooked
