The guys here in Mosul are all beginners. We have 2 CPPs, 2 CX2s, and a 450 Trex in the group. Needles to say we crash ALOT. Last night we went over and watched one of the soldiers that had a Trex 600. WOW it can be done. He was really good. After he was done flying we went in and watched a bunch of vids that he had taken at a birthday party for one of the Helifreak starters, again WOW. IT is a real confidence builder seeing the flopping wing things fly and fly well. Since we are all new to this sport we have no clue about setups and stuff like that. He has been a real help. In the aviation community we call it Hanger Flying and you can learn alot about things that you did not even think about. Thanks again I have not asked Many questions but the ones I have asked have been answered really quick. We did learn DONT fly a CX2 in the wind, we almsot lost it.

The Trex 600 is much easier to fly than the smaller helis. It is much more stable which makes learning easier. Good luck with the helis and hang in there, it will all come in time.
