Just bought this, by mistake.

I had a few beers and put a bid on this

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261102592032?ssPageName=...

Then won it forgetting I'd actually bid on the bloody thing

The listing states it needs a new battery and I just wondered if anybody could recommend what I should get for it. Also I've only ever flown the contra helis and used to have a delta wing electric plane a few years ago that I got pretty good at flying upside down and what not; this looks a bit more complicated.

Any hints/tips on flying the thing successfully.

This will be much more lively than the contras you've flown before!

Battery will be a 7.4V 830Mah lipo (check out www.buzzflyer.co.uk for bits).

Go slow; don't expect to be flying it around after a couple of goes. It takes much longer to get the hang of it. check out http://www.dream-models.com/eco/flying-index.html for tips on how to start flying it.

Good luck; it's very satisfying when you get the hang of it
