Hi to everyone here,
I am new and need some advice. I was recently given a Axe cp Heli-Max helicopter. I have no idea what it takes to fly it. Other seeing youtube videos any recommendations on reading material to learn how to operate it. Thanks for help

Reading will take you part-way, and it will prove to be frustrating. The absolute way to learn fast is to find a flying buddy with more experience than you do and learn from him.

If you insist (I know some will) I read this book: [link]http://www.airagestore.com/books/planes/the-basics-of-rc-helis.html[/link]
And this website: [link]http://raptortechnique.com/[/link]

Here is another site that has some useful information for those starting out in the hobby, although it does not have info on your specific helicopter.

If i may suggest you read radds school of flight his methods are a little unorthodox but it works for me heres a link

Thanks for all the Advice. I also went to my local Hobby shop and had a seasoned flyer look it over. The exact model is a Helic-Max Axe CP v3. While at the Hobby store the clerk told me about Small co-axial helicopters. That they can be a great way to learn the feel of what helicopters are like (not by any means are the two the exact same) and what to expect. So for 60 bucks I bought a Mini EF Stinger. Its been a blast around the house. I look forward to mastering this one and moving on to something bigger and better.
