I haven't found getting parts for the SEV2 that difficult. Lots of the parts on 450s are common and most of the clones are SEV2s. If you already have a CP heli then all you have to do is make sure that the new one does the same. A pitch gauge is worth getting and then you can check your setup. You must have repaired your previous heli. I'm in Bracknell and have a SEV2 clone so you can check yours against mine if you want.

yes ive had helis before but new to the ay6200 and dxm6i plus got this heli from flebay and would just like someone who knows abit about them to maybe look at it first just for peace of mind

I've got a dx6i and its not a problem to program. Just seems difficult to begin with. Helis are difficult to begin with but like most things they get easier overtime. It is a waste of time to fly a heli unless you know its set up right. It's not that difficult to set one up from scratch but there is a lot to learn. The instructions tell you what to do. For the DX6i you can use the Blade 400 instructions in the Blade400 BNF manual. The servos are in a different place and so the swash mixing is different. If you want to know what to do you can start with the Blade400 manual as that comes with a DX6i and just ask when you get stuck. Don't be put off if it doesn't make sense to begin with just leave it a day and read again. Each time you read through you will understand a bit more. You can start off with swash mixing if you like. The way that three servos are used to control the swash.
