SeeBee-- Don't worry about it. Just get your heli fixed properly and start flying again. Any sim will help you learn to fly better. I practiced on Real Flight G3 for about a month or so before getting my AXE and was hovering in my garage the first night I got it. The sim has helped me to be more relaxed and confident when flying the real deal.

On another note. I just ordered myselft a new T-Rex 450SE V2, DX7, and everything else needed to get it flying. Because of this I may have a couple of things for the AXE for sale in the next couple of weeks. I am going to keep my AXE but will no longer need 3 lipo packs for it so I will be selling 2 of my Thunder Power 3s 1320 packs and possibly a few other spare parts that are still new in the bag.

I have had a good experiance with the AXE CP and it served its purpose well. I now know that I am going to stick with this "Heli Thing" and and ready to move up to different model.
