So..I bit the bullet

And got the HBFPV2. I got it home, unpacked it..lo and behold it was awesome, I charged the battery, put in the reciever batteries made all checks and throttled up..well, first it skated, and did the entire 'I wanna go LEFT!' thing..so I remembered being told I need to correct this..thus I started learning how to do that..finally..I got it airborne..lo and behold..it was NOTHING like that little Coaxial Airwolf LMAO.

I worked the stick, and found the response was awesome. A little TOO awesome..lol throttle down, get my wits and try again..finally I get it airborne again, and in a decent hover..not like that stable little coaxial, but still, a hover..I'm proud of me, I've hovered my first single rotor helicopter. Now..once I've got that down pat, I'm gonna start the other basics: Nose in hover, side hover, then gonna work on the rest. Thus far I'm loving the FP V2. I can't wait to get the King 3 in the air, I should be able to transition without problem I'm hoping

Congratulations, well done.
You should move ahead in leaps & bounds now, there is a lot to be said for buying a new setup and test flown helicopter, your not trying to fix other peoples problems as well as learn to fly.
