I was wondering if anyone knew of a good beginners guide or some sort of
handbook on R/C helicopters.  I've been around  R/C cars for a long time and
just picked up a Blade CP and realflight to learn how to fly it.  I have
read reviews all over the net with pros and cons about the Blade CP and
overall they are good, even though some people don't recommend it for
newbies like me. Anyway I the more I know more about the theory and model
adjustments or setup  for this part of the hobby the better.  Thanks in
advance for any advice

How's about a beginning spelling guide?

What you want is the Electric Helicopters Beginners guide.

Go to http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=342742

and download the file.  Good reading.  Let me know if you need any help.
Where are you located??

You know Paul, sometimes, when you don't have anything constructive to add,
it's best to keep your mouth shut!  Ruiz may have a couple of grammer issues
in his post (most of us do now and then) but his spelling isn't bad at all.
I've seen a lot worse!

To Ruiz:

Someone else posted a link with regards to the electrics.  I'm sure it will
help.  As a further suggestion, get hold of a copy of Ray's Helicopter
Manual by Ray Hostetler.  I think it's in it's third edition now.  It's got
tons of good info on just about anything you can think of related to model
helicopters.

Best of luck & Fly Safe,
Steve R.

Thanks, guys (Steve and Red_Bastard).  That's the kind of advice I was
hoping for.

These are some links I found useful. They are more to do with Gas Heli's but
there is a lot of general info as well.

To be followed by a "what the hell kind of word is how's?" guide?
