Default A noobies first flight (hover)

I got my Honey Bee 2 cp yesterday (my first single rotor) I got everything adjusted and went out to try it and see if I could even hover (noobie here). I didn't pick the best day though, 5 - 10 mph winds (lol) but I actually got it hovering and kept it pretty much in one place for about 30 seconds. I tried it first with the training gear but it wasn't very stable so I took it off and it was much better. Had a few minor crashes of coarse but no damage, just a big grin (lol). I guess all the training with the xrb helped some after all. So far it seems to be fairly tough but I'm sure I'll find something to break (lol). So the rest of you noobies keep at it and don't give up. Now I just need a calm day.

Thanks and good luck to you too. I just crashed mine today and broke my brand new ducted fan tail rotor (the motor mounts) Any one need a tail motor for one, brand new with a heat sink?
