Okay, thats a lot simpler then I thought it was going to be. Yes I am very new to RC helis and I got the Blade as my first helo and I'm starting to think a bigger, heaver helo would have been a better choice since they are more stable but it's too late now and I gotta learn with this, good thing I have no intrest in aerobatic flight, just scale flying.
I actually have that site (RADDS) bookmarked and have been reading it but untill I order my plastic blades I cant really do anything since my last set of wood blades are history (hit a propane tank and shatterd one) so I am waiting on the plastic ones to put RADDS to the test.
thanks for the info!

Blade_killer,
Side in hovering: That's when the heli's left side or right side is pointing towards you.
Nose in hovering: That's when the nose/front of the heli is pointing towards you.
Tail In: That's when the tail of the heli is pointing towards you. Best way to learn, that way all directions seem normal, if that makes sense? Forward, Backward, Left or Right.
Hitting something is okay, just cost $$$, just don't hit somebody, cut the throttle and crash, still cost $$$, but nobody gets hurt.
Size: The CP is in the catagory of a 300 size heli..The bigger the heli, the bigger the number. And vise-versa.
By your questions, I'm gonna guess your pretty new to the hobby, check out this site for Heli Flying. It's called Radd's School of Rotary Flight and will give you a lot of tips and training, follow it and you'll be amazed on how you progress.
