Hi Andy 
 
I also need help to set-up the Genesis. The problem for me is not the wiring. The problem is to know the basic parameters to program the transmitter. However, waiting for the receiver that you will send to me, the Genesis is stand-by.  I am now using the first helicopter that I have bought: the Black Hawk 450 SE. I have found a very good solution for practising the hovering, avoiding the usual breakups.  I have replaced the classical training lending gear with 1       hula-hoop of around 62 centimeters of diameters with 2 wood rod in cross. I recommend a lot this solution to my colleagues beginners. 
 
Best regards
