hi idle up mode is wot you would use for 3d flying etc or for nitro powered helys i think. the honey bee king is still collective pitch.
is there no flyin clubs near you if so my best advice would be to go to one. when u do decide wot hely you want there will be plenty of experianced flyers there who can help u set it up properly i found getin taught hands on by some one is better than trying to learn just by reading threads and followin videos they do help alot but when your watchin somone set ur hely up and showin u how to fly in person i learnt alot faster
someone adviced me to get a good simulator wich can b expensive for a gud one but i imagine it wud save u money in crashes in the long run hope this helps
gud luck
