R.C. HELICOPTERS CAN DESTROY YOUR T.V.!
when flying a heli indoors, no matter the size, ALWAYS put a beach towel or blanket over the screen of your t.v. or computer! if you screw up and crash into your screen, you will have just made the graphics of your monitor look like a that of a etch a sketch! belive me, a 450 sized heli with carbon fiber rotors on a cold winter day in the family room on its maiden flight right at your new visio t.v. is not a pretty sight. it may not provide much that much protection unless it is a smaller heli. sure wont stop a 450!!!

RE: novus 125 cp: my first heli ever!!!:( help me!
thanks for the advice. i can get it to turn 90 degrees either way, but when i go any more towards nose in, i try to correct something but i move the stick the wrong way and then its to late to save it. i just might get the co-axial or a larger fixed pitch:)

novus 125 cp: my first heli ever!!!:( help me!
so, last year i bought the novus 125 cp from tower hobbies. it is the first heli i've ever owned. i already fly airplanes and wanted to give choppers a chance. little did i know a micro sized collective pitch heli was not a good first choice. at first i logged about i don't know 2-3 seconds before crashing into the wall. the whole head was busted. then it kinda clicked and i learned to get it to a hover. not much but just a couple short hovers and landings. now, i can fly it around my house and land on tables and move just about anywhere BUT i still have been trying for MONTHS to get nose in flying. i can only fly with the tail pointing towards me or its break dancing on the carpet lol. i cant get it down some how. just the conversion from tail to nose in orientation gets be into a crash. i need help from someone who knows what i'm going through and can help me make a decision on what path to take. i have the money to get this nice looking co-axial heli called the walkera 400 e-sky i think. it looks like a coast guard rescue chopper. should i get it or should i keep busting rotors trying to learn. i just need a way to get the trick to nose in. no sims because my computer is a dinosaur. im only 15 so i don't know a whole lot about helis lol
