for starters it is a small heli very different to your co-ax and therefore is going to be a lot more twitchy than even a 450 size machine! it has a lot less rotor disc area to stabilise on!!

you also need to pay special attention to battery placement to prevent imbalance!

a good analogy of hovering a heli is balancing a marble on a sheet of glass, trying to keep it near the centre of the sheet!

the other major thing to bear in mind is : correct set up can mean the difference between success and putting it on the shelf to be ignored! one of the important parts of set up is making sure the servo arms are perpendicular to the control rod and are placed on the servo at the half travel point (i.e. even amounts of movement either way)

personally i wouldn't go to something quite so small as your first CP heli but it is entirely personal choice, if you take your time and get sorted on all the stages of flying it should be a blast! if you can fly the tiddly one, the bigger ones will be a breeze to fly

hope this is of some help
