HBFP is more for outside little wind only.
HBFP1 or HBFP2 I am inclined for the latter because of better battery, stronger frame and electronics.

Go ahead and get an HBFP so you will learn single rotor from the start. You won't regret it and you can use the money you would spend on coax helis later when you build a big heli. :prop:

HBFP V2. Definitely get the V2, very forgiving of beginner wrecks.

Very satisfied with new Heli which is stable and hovers a lot easier than my HBCP2. :grinn:

Get the cheap lama, it comes with usb cable so you can use it with tx on your computer as a simulator. Download heli sim. Practice ALOT. Go to RADD's flight school (online) Get trainng gear when you buy lama. Learn basics on lama. They pretty much fly themselves. It will not have the movement as a cp does, but its a good beginner heli. What the controls do and how to use them. Basic hover tail in. Hover right, then left, nose in. When you can fly this without thinking (automatic reaction,) then go for the hbfp v2 and another training kit.. An fp will not fly the same as a coaxial because you have a tail rotor. And you have to control it and the pitch and roll. And the controls will feel different. Take your time. Put on a smooth surface where it will slide around the floor some. Follow RADD's rules. Also watch Marc's vids on beginner flying. :bigthumb:
