Hi Andy, the honeybee fp is a great learner, as you have to actually fly it, unlike the coax helis that will almost fly themselves. I sold mine a bit a go to fund an Airwolf fuse for my 450 size
big thing though for the honeybee, fit an inline fuse between battery and the 4:1, and motor to 4:1, seems overkill, but if it comes down a bit heavy (and it will!!) the blades strike the boom, everything locks up and the 4:1 emitts the magic smoke, and cannot be fixed, its the most expensive thing on the heli . The stock motor will not last long, and the little tail motor struggles to keep up. Best brushed motor (so you dont need a brushless esc) is a slomax, and get the gws tailmotor and blades upgrade if you dont have them, then on 2 cell lipo its a great bird, I am really sorry I sold it in hindsight, it was great fun, and can be flown indoors, well hoverred, depending how big the room, is, oh, stock blades flex too much, gws blades are way better, loads of info on heliguy forum, dedicated threads to honeybee and the belt. Got a box of ally bling for sale on behalf of a friend on the bay now, take a look
Sold my esky king v2 last week, as the trex450 needed parts, the 450 is so much easier to fly than the hbee, any questions just ask!
