Learning to fly .....Just how hard?
Discussion
UPDATE:
If you recollect, I bought the RFT Blade CPS...
As predicted, I crashed the hell out of this.
The last crash pulled the power lead off the board (£45) and was OOS and my local store.
They did however, offer me a Blade MSR (Flybar/FP) for £45...
Since I had just bought a used DX6I off the bay, I said yes.
Upshot of this - instantlty controllable heli flight!
Started off with 30% and 75% every where else.
Now happy to fly with 20 expo and everything else full fat...
Will continue with this until after the upcoming holiday and will then re attempt the CPS....
Am now offically on the waiting list for the local club as well.....

Update time :
Been officially a member of the club for a month but just had no time to get down the flying field.
As a result, I bit the bullet and bought this :
http://www.horizonhobby.com/sport-cub-s-bnf-with-s...
This worked for me as it uses the same batts that my Helis do, so have a handfull already.
Has three modes and panic recovery.
Never flown a plane before, but spent last night flying it on basic settings - used 5 batteries throguh it.
Im hooked.
Even on basic settings its quite quick and nimble,more time in the air will make it a cracking little plane I reckon.
