Default Hirobo GPH346, looking for a few tips/ideas.

I have been looking to get another heli for about a month now. I have not flown a heli in 12 years now, that was a Concept 30. I was proficient in forward flight when I sold it. Course I took 8 years off flying planes and had no trouble on my first flight back. I had decided on a JR Venture or the Caliber 30. Then I found a good deal on a Hirobo GPH346. Basically new, 3 flights by a local expert, for only $500 ready to fly, plus 2 planes for free. The heli has been sitting in his photo lab for a year now.

I intend to check the batteries, servos, engine and gyro to ensure they appear to be in good shape prior to first flight. As well as disassemble most of the heli to make sure everything is tight and to get a good feel for it.

I have been told it has every upgrade offered by Hirobo.

I was wondereding other than a set of training gear what you all might suggest to make this heli a bit easier to fly as I get back
into heli's? Maybe a set of heavier flybar paddles? I know this is not a trainer, but for the deal I decided to go for it anyway.

TIA
