There are helicopter forums to bettter assist you.. ... also suggest you pick up a cheap ready to fly and fly that for a bit.. and may also be able to use the components in the conversion.

You've never flown r/c before but you want to take a model helicopter not designed to fly and convert it? Wow! You win the optimist of the month prize.

I second KitBuilder's suggestions - try Helicopters and start with a known commodity (a model that will fly) and get an instructor.

Best of luck!
