I made training gear. 2 pieces of CF tubing (can be arrow shafts), 4 ping pong balls, some hot glue to hold the balls on, and rubber bands to hold it all to the skids.
Do you have the S75 servos? If so, I highly recommend getting some Hitec HS65 servos to replace them. The slop in the S75's will make the already very difficult task of learning, even harder.
As mentioned earlier, watch the Finless videos.
Hook up with an experienced pilot and have them look over your heli, test fly it, and listen to their recommendations. http://www.modelaircraft.org/clubsearch.aspx will help you find clubs in your area. (there is one IN Rolla)
