need help MSR cuttin out
I was flying my MSR today and it took a spill into the wall. Now the helicopter will spin up for one second and then shut down. My battery is charged, the blue light is solid. The helicopter will spin up fine for about on second and then twitch and just shut off. Then 2 seconds later turn back on. any suggestions on what must be broke????

I have had funky issues like that resulting from not having the battery plugged all the way in. Make sure you are getting the connector all the way on. Also make sure the contacts are straight and making contact.

Unplug your tail rotor motor and then fire it up. Then plug in your motor and fire it up again. If the problem goes away when the motor is unplugged, you have damaged the tail motor which is shorting out your 5 in 1.

RE: need help MSR cuttin out
Totally agree with Res. Had the exact same thing happen to me and the tail motor was the issue. The motor was locking up and not spinning the tail blade. And just so you know you can get one from amazon.com...my LHSand alot of on-line sites are on back order.
