So, I’ve reached the limits of the coax system. Got a lot of blade strikes when I pushed it too far, it’s not a challenge to fly it anymore. Then it was time for me to move onto the single-rotor world.
I bought a E-sky Honey Bee FP2 from miracle-mart, after reading trough rc-groups about new beginner helies. I even created my own thread with a poll, and so that other who know what to get gave me a good push in the right direction. After a while, I bought the FP2. And I love it!

It’s very noob friendly, hard and robust. It can handle some pretty nasty crashes, mostly because it’s much more simple than a CP. And because of it’s weight(290g), also the blades runs at a much lower speed than CP helies.

Less tuning and tweaking than a CP heli, but of course it got it’s downsides. It flies slower than a CP, and slower reaction. But for now it’s all I need! Right now I’m struggling with keeping the heli hovered and turning around. Theres alot to learn when moving on from a lama.

Actually, I wish I just had started on this heli in the first place. Tho the lama gave me some experience, and allot of fun times 🙂


Hello,
Nice pictures.
I bought the same helicopter as you, it should arrive in a week.
Its my first helicopter so I’m just a bit excited and worried at the same time.
How long would it take to learn hovering, flying forward and backwards?
I bought an extra battery and I heard that the helicopter would get overheated in 15 min flight time, is it right?
Hm, I got a heatsink on the main engine, and the tail engine doesnt seem to get
hot at all. Just above body temp.
