Hello.

I've just bought one of E-Sky's little Honey-Bee fixed pitch helis
(EK1H-E004/FP).
After discovering and fixing a fault with the swash plates which made my
heli go as mad as a headless chicken, I ordered a couple more battery
packs and a couple of new rotor sets from ebay. All that for £16,
wikkid! I should be ready to go now.

As you may have seen, E-Sky's "pidgeon english" instructions leave alot
to the immagination. What I wanted to hear from you guys is; how you set
the heli up before flight, where you practiced flying, and any tips
which you think may help me learn a little quicker.
Also, if there are any clubs in the Essex/Hertfordshire area I would be
very interested to hear about them.

Thanks very much for reading.

Any advice that you offer will be greatly appreciated.

So you buy a brand new model and think it's "wikkid" that you have to spend
£16 straight away? Hmm.

Seriously though, I havent flown THAT one. As for clubs, go to a model shop
and ask, or look at BMFA web site and their links section. Oh, or Bumpy
Green Aerodrome web site. Oh and look at the news group, rc helicopters .uk
or sumfink like that. Do a search. Its a good group.

Good luck matey. And welcome to model flying

David
