Default CX3 Rollover

Yesterday I bought a CX3,took it home,set up the DX6I according to the book,including the set type as AIRPLANE,it would only do 1 of 2 things,either spin wildly to the left,and or roll over on its left side.I got the spin part taken care of,the guy at the LHS knew right away what was wrong,he said that was a common prob with that heli, (gear wasnt tight on the shaft),still the rollover problem,so i found a set of DX6I settings for the CX3 online,these were basicaly the same except they called for setting the model type as HELI,which I did,and still the rollover,at a loss for what to do now.

Joe,

Did you check to make sure the swashplate was moving in the correct direction when you enter in stick movements? Are the trims and subtrims near the center? Is the swashplate level?

OK, I got the rollover problem taken care of (swash plate separation),ow I have to find out why its making close circular run without input,and if that aint enough,I was flying my Esky CPV2,I said "just 3 more minutes"..........as I was setting it down it veered to the right,the blade busted the swash plate on my Blade 400...........................lol..........gotta love it............
