How to Fly an RC Helicopter - A Quick Lesson

How to Fly an RC Helicopter - A Quick Lesson: "Now with a 2 channel you begin to notice the helicopter will fly in seemingly random directions. It's not random at all, but very specific to the weight balance of the RC helicopter and the blade angle. In a 4 channel you control this balance with more control directions as well as carefully managing the weight. On your 2 channel you need to test out different weights and positions to find the right balance for the small copter. Experiment, this will be good practice before you lift off your 6 channel machine. With the right setup and practice you will be able to perform a good hover with your 2 channel at different heights. You'll be able to descend to a hover and take off to a hover just inches above the ground while keeping the body in place with the tail rotor."
