Salutations to all,

New to this Forum, new to this site, and new to the addiction. I bought one of those Havoc micro 2-ch helis a couple of weeks ago and had such a blast with it I had to get a larger one (bitten by the bug here). Well I started to do some research and found a couple contra rotating blade copters that looked like fun(and in retro spec easier to fly), but than one day while surfing I found the Axe CP and I was sold(though tempted by the HoneyBee King2). Well I bought one two days ago assembled it watched the DVD then took it out side, I did not even get it off the ground. The next day I met up with a coworker who had been flying for ten years and he gave me the confidence to get it off the ground (*******). Last night I decided to go for a buzz and was doing fine (tail in) when it bounced about seven feet, I thought I would be fine until it started to drift into a neighbors car, in a panic I slammed the throttle and came down hard on the left side. Right now I a waiting for a new swash plate, center hub, and fly bar link.
