Frankly, I'm amazed that you have been able to fly it at all with no simulator or other help. It is NOT a beginner's helicopter. If your LHS has a simulator set up (many do), get in there and practice on a trainer .30 size and you'll be amazed how much better you will do. I have the Axe CP and T-Rex 600 and the T-Rex is mucn, much easier to fly!
Yes, the larger helis are easier to fly but if you can fly the smaller ones just think how much better of a bigger heli flyer you will be. I went from a micro helicopter to a 450 size heli with no problems.
You will also see posts from larger heli flyers who want to try something small for indoor and around the yard flying who have a really hard time with the smaller helis even to the point they just give up. Im up to about 20 helis now and still buying[&:][:@]
You're right. When I first tried the simulator on the Axe CP, I would crash almost instantly. (I had NO heli experience at that time, though.) After learning on the Dominion 90 3D, I found I could go back and fly the heck out of the Axe CP, doing all kinds of stuff with it. It is different for sure and I am just getting the hang of my real CP. It does NOT fly anything like the simulator, frankly, even after changing out servos, other things. I'm still trying, though. Just put the fourth flight on my T-Rex 600 and boy, is it sweet. Happy Landings!
