thanks guys, will check out HK for some additional batteries.
I rang RC Hobbies and told them I dont have time to go there again and that I will mail the battery and they will send me a replacement so all ok.
I just had two first flights with the heli today. I have been following the tips and prep from here:

but I have to say, its HARD !!!! like really hard ! heh ... I did not even lift off the ground, I was just getting used to the controls and what does what. Well, I had few lifts for like 2-3 seconds but I chickened out and slowly came back and was just moving around the concrete area (using training gear). I wont give up that easily though.
One question, I assume these things dont hover perfectly still am I correct ? You still need to make small adjustments to keep the bird steady. Right ?
EDIT: brotherblonde, I will definitely take you up on the help bit !!!!
