Learn to Fly 3d RC Helicopters

Question? The First Steps
Well flying helicopters is not exactly easy. You cant just pick up a controller and start flying. If you think that is the case then sell your helicopter now and go and buy a remote control car or boat.

FIRST STEPS:

Buy a GOOD simulator and run it on a GOOD PC. The two most popular simulators are real flight and Pheonix. Either is suffice, though my preference is pheonix.

DECIDE TRANSMITTER MODE:

Decide weather you want to fly MODE ONE or MODE TWO. Most people in the states fly MODE TWO. Dont pick a mode thinking that other people will be able to show you stick movements....
Since I changed to Futaba and using the 8FG I am loving it. Would almost get a 14SG but the 8 feels more comfy in my hand. It does everything I need and more, works fantastic with CGY750 and is easy to navigate. What are your thoughts?
Has anyone had experience with the warp. I hear people claim it is really tough and light. Is it? I want to know because when I have a minip at the moment and am stoked with it, but another heli of equal ability and toughness would not go astray
