Anyone with help, (W37)

I'm new of course, got my heli up and crashed. Found this thread and got tons of information. Plan on doing upgrades but I figure I'll crash a few times first and earn my keep. I got new parts and she just doesn't have the lift as before. I tethered it to the table and after playing with the pitch got her to pull like it would lift like no tomorrow, stable even, I held the training balls off the table while tied down. Then I decide to bring it outside with no change and all it will do is spin up and barely get enough lift to turn direction or lean. It will throttle up like crazy and sounds like something but won't get the lift needed. At about 60-70% sounds smooth but no lift. When I add more throttle the sound of the blades change to a deep wooo-wooo-wooo sound. Is this too much pitch?

Now, the glitches as mentioned many times in this thread, twice it has throttled up uncontrollably with no input from my TX. Plug it in and gyro initializes and then ZOOOM! Was kinda scary second time, I had just tied it down for a test (been testing on and off all day no problems) when it did it the second time.

My questions are:
Is this just glitches or is something burning up that I need to change before it costs me?

The pitch gauge, there is so much play between the main rotors and the flybar how can you accurately measure? Do you hold the flybar up? Everyone's videos of their W37's in this forum move exactly as mine does.

Hoping for some info on this and I hope this helps me and some others out.

Thanks,
DRhodesWS

PS. Sorry for being long-winded.

My setup is with the brushless with the 30A ESC also. Everything stock otherwise.

W37, do you plan on putting any of your tested and flown helis on your ebay site? I'm interested if so.

Thanks for the help guys. I finally brought a Futaba 6EX radio and receiver. The guys at the local hobby shop tested the new radio and it work fine with the DF37. I do have one question; the gyro is very sensitive how do I turn it down a notch? Can anyone tell me how to set the servos up with the new radio? (How much pitch in the blade do I need)

if the gyro sensitivity lead is hooked up to the GEAR channel,
all you do is bring down the value for that channel.

On my DX6 I have 55% . with the w007 Gyro

W37 Cepeda, which washplate type did you choose for your DF37 (1-S, 3-S, or 3-E) ?

I took the swashplate from the DF60 upgrade and modified it for my Df37. The installed 450 size ball linkages to use with aligns metal

head parts, like the mixers and washout pieces. I have one availabe if you want it.. its not pretty, but it does the job. I'll post a pic.

Hey does anyone know for sure if the 37 is still being made by Walkera? I spoke with someone at RCANDME who said it is still being made. They are waiting for more 37s.

Did I read correctly that the HS-55 doesnt work with the stock #37 gyro? Ive moved the rudder servo to the tail boom(pix coming soon) and replaced with the walkera 7.6g high speed servo, and it doesn't seem any faster. Ive also got to chase out a little tail wag/drift problem, but I think that was already covered in this thread. These things sure are addicting

Anyone shopping for a spektrum dx6 should check out www.toddsmodels.com, he's got a great price on the kit ($165US)which includes the Tx(w/battery and charger), Rx, and 4 s75 servos, tho he says out of stock until late Sept/early Oct.

I'm about to switch back to the plastic head cause im having issues with the 60 head and the random twitching i get from the electronics. Im leaning to buy an ESky belt. A little advanced for me but i think ill grow into it. I noticed that with the 60 head on the 37 makes ror real sensitive sticks. Almost too sensitive.
