Status: offline 		hmmm... repost..... and again... can't see pics.

your receiver might have locked, but I suggest charging a batt, disconnect motors, and plug everything else in. run your servos through all motions and see if one of them is not responding, mainly the two back ones. Could be a soldered wire inside the servo has come undone, does it twitch if you wiggle the wires?

PS if you use the 'reply' option in a post (not the fast reply at the bottom of the page) it will give you the ability to upload and post pics. resize your pics to something like 600 x 480 (seperate application) which makes it a decent size for posting.

Status: offline 		try spraying some contact cleaner into the controller levers, but make ABSOLUTELY sure that it is 'plastic safe' contact cleaner as any other kind could damge plastic parts.

another option is to take some alcohol and swab down what you can with a q-tip

Status: offline 		ya i am on a ibook g4, but if i could just get the pics on the enet any way then i could just copy and paste. Well Ive be in thinking if ways to fix the heli.The biggest problem is the part that lets the main rotors move forward and backward well one of them has broken off. I don't think i can pin point it with super glue, but i am thinking of just burning a tiny hole threw both sides of were it needs to be connected with a red hot needle then sticking a tiny wire thru it. This will probably be hard tho. Maybe i could just find a mechanic or look for the spare part.

Status: offline 		i am pretty sure that the pic you had on is exactly what happend to me. Well the top of the peice that broke off needs to pivet so i cant glue or melt. When you put those screws in did you need a lot of equiptment to do it + could i do it being a biginer.exactly hoe did you fix it? Also the part that i posted is that the same one or the one that could fix my heli.was your pic of a 22e.did you need a electric drver to get it in.And lastly any tips for me when i do it.

thank you so much you have been very helpful

Status: offline 		you can completely do it as long as the only thing broken are the little posts on the flybar seesaw which is the third part from the left on the picture that you posted. If this is the case I wouldn't recommend buying a new part, but rather do the following for a much stronger attaching point.

You will need:

- #50 drill bit or equivalent
- machine screw/nuts to fit in #50 hole or equivalent
- #1 phillips head screwdriver
- adjustable wrench (small) or something to hold the nuts as you install the screw
- threadlock (optional if you use two nuts)

finish breaking off the little posts and file them flush. if the linkage is still good on one side I'd say break off the little melted cap that holds it in place and do the repair on both sides to keep balance in the head.

drill a #50 hole (or something equivalent) EXACTLY where the little posts use to be

reference the picture in the link I posted earlier and put a little machine screw through the linkage and through the new hole you just drilled. place a nut a on the back side but make sure you leave enough play for the linkage to swivel.

you can now put a second nut on top of the first to act as a lock (which is what I did and prefer) or put a couple of drops of threadlock on the screw/nut (you can buy this at an autoparts store). if you do the second make sure you inspect it often and see that the threadlock didn't break off and the nut hasn't backed off.

I have those little screws/nuts at home, but I assume a place like home depot/lowes would sell these.


GL and take your time.
