you said you were new to the heli game. the blade cp pro is very hard for a beginner to fly. it is very unstable, but a lot of fun once you get the hang of it. the problem you describe, i don't think is a problem at all. i have the VNR3d, and it is the same size, and equally unstable. i noticed that my heli acted the same way yours did on the ground, and i thought it was doing it in the air as well, and that was making it super hard to fly. not the case, apparently it only does this on the ground, once it gets in the air, it behaves properly. it took an experienced pilot to fly it and show me that it was just a very hard heli to fly. i spent weeks trying to track down what i thought was a problem, and turned out to be nothing. i know it can be very frustrating at first, but if you stick with it, it should get easier over time. you could also get a sim, or try radds school of rotary flight, it's very good so i hear as long as you stick with it the way he says to. good luck, and happy flying! peace.
