You're welcome. From my own experience, though, I did find the
CPPRo useful for learning the nuances of collective pitch. I
mean, I already knew them in theory being an armchair pilot
for the last 25 years, but your fingers need to learn how to
touch the controls just right. There is a finesse to flying
these. I've learned that much already. You have to think ahead
of the machine.
Don't forget your training gear, though. Heck, I made mine.
two 3/8" dowels, some practice golfballs, and zip ties should
work fine (I used rubber bands).
