Start by increasing the throttle/collective VERY slowly and ONLY to the point where the heli gets light on it's skids... In other words, you DON'T want it to lift off of the ground, but be able to "slide" around a bit... (make sure your on a hard surface, no grass or something)... Work on keeping it "stable" in one spot.. When you can hold it in one place pretty well, then increase the throttle/collective a little more.. Again hold in one spot... Keep doing that until you eventually get it to lift off the ground... You really don't want it any more than about 1 inch off the ground. Then just practice keeping it balanced and stationary...

With all due respect....why don't you learn how your transmitter works first? How can you even attempt to fly a heli when, as you state, you don't even know what control is the throttle?? Hello? I too am a self-taught flier with only 9 months under my belt, but I assure you I spent 3 weeks with the machine before I ever even started it up.

Learn the mechanics and controls first and Good luck

why don't you go around S'pore and find out where other fliers fly......I heard that the flying scene over there is big and is very active.
if you don't know where to find em, ask the local hobby stores around....
then once u get to meet some ppl in the same hobby, look, see and ask on tips on how to fly.....thats the best way to learn.
another would be to get a simulator.....so learn around first.
