Just can't Get it up!

I've got a Blade CP and I'm having a lot of trouble getting it to hover properly. My tail spins no matter what my trim settings are and it never wants to go up straight (or even close). I'm using it indoors on a flat surface. Is this just normal behaviour for a Heli? Or am I just a really bad pilot?

For me the spin was that the tail wasnt pushed into the gear thats attached to the tail
motor very well.

Is this a new heli? Your tail motor might be no good does it only spin one way? You may need to adjust your 4in1 for mixing tail to main rotor one way or the other watch these videos and it will give you a better understanding what your doing.http://www.runryder.com/helicopter/t244675p1/ have fun and take your time you will get there.
