It had been a while since I’ve flown a heli in my backyard. The flying space is limited and the swing-set along with a couple of my neighbor’s trees certainly come into play. Sure, it’s a challenge to perform fast and tight figure 8s and circuit in a limited space; however, performing slow FF also has its challenges. The purpose of this video is to illustrate the slow FF and hovering stability of my modified Esky Honey Bee FP. Of course, I'd also like to believe that my improving flying skills are also partially responsible for the stability. My setup:

- Slo-Max 300 brushed main motor w/HPI 9T Pinion
- GWS direct drive tail motor w/4530 prop
- Kyosho M24 main blades
- Super Skids
- Stock 4-in-1
- Commonsense RC 7.4V 8C 800mAh Lipo Battery
- Stock 4-Channel Tx

This is a great setup which is much more powerful and agile versus the stock setup. Also, this setup sounds great! Turn up the volume!
