    Hi, RON DAWSON!

    Are you looking for the instructions to operate a certain kind? If so, it would help to know the name of the company that manufactured it. It could be possible that there might be some information out there on the Internet concerning it.

    Thanks!

    Easy! Get an RC simulator for the PC, like Great Flight 4.5 Cheapest way to get used to the controls, without crashing any RC Helicopters in real life.

    Mode1 - Pitch and Roll are on the left thumbstick. Yaw and throttle on the right stick

    Mode 2 - Yaw and throttle are on the left stick, Pitch and roll on the right stick.

    Well really you should get yourself down to a local heli club and just watch and ask... but if you can't wait and want to try yourself then the key is SMALL MOVES! On the sticks! If you go at it like an RC car you will smash your heli in 10 seconds no joke!. fisrt you should get yourself some training aids these are long rods with plastic balls on the end and will stop your heli from rolling or pitching over at low levels they attach to your skids.. you should always have someone with you when your flying , if your in the park they can keep an eye open for people coming to talk to you (kids are a pain for this) or people just walking past etc etc ( I nearly hit a dog on takeoff once I was on my own ). Never take your eyes off your model esp a heli... OK enough safety talk... ok try just a small amount of gas at first just to get a feel for the power and the trim it will most likely try and yaw either right or left as you increase the gas. Once this happens shut off the gas and move the trims on your transmitter to counter act it... then try again SMALL amounts off gas let the heli take its own wight and get light on the ground.. Once you happy that its going to be stable with the sticks at there zeros you can try some maneuvers but I would say don't get to brave and fly to far away just go back and forth at first until you get used to it... Well good luck man I mean it helis are not easy to fly! That's why I stick to fix wing lol Helis... been there done that got the pieces.. REMEMBER SMALL MOVES!
