I've talked to numerous people at LHS online, and they say the HONEYBEE FP is built like a tank; parts are really cheap, and they are a very stable platform; very good for learning. I even had one recommend it and He doesn't even carry it ! !
I'm not trying to pour salt into Your wound, but I'm sure You could unload it here, take the small loss and try it; or put it away, purchase another one more suitable, then come back when You are better.

walkera #4 (i got mine from our buddy ushobbysupply) is better than the honeybee fixed pitch version 4 (004) - the tail is the same as the cp on the hbfpv4 and it is just as tail heavy - batt must be way forward mounted - not a very good condition for stability
once you can fly the walkera #4 fp then you can work up to the cp but it is not the same animal so there is still a big difference, mainly in the blade weight making the cp top-heavy
