Hi Guyz.. Ive been Practicing on my Cx (but it cant fly now because i broke the top blade due to flyin in to a chair)...

Today i flew the honey bee 1st time... managed to get it to a hoverin start and thought i would take it for a nice spin... which i did untill it lost control and just droped in to a tree and broke... the landing Skids have completley snapped of the cheap made plastic body! and now when i switch on the main rotor its completley out of sync.. i dont know why... the blades are dead straight and the heli is shakin like made and the blades are all over the place.... i really dont know whats wrong with it now and need help badly... its making me give up but i dont want 2... heeelp!

sorry, but could you plz spell out ur words correctly?

I have this feeling that you bent your main shaft, as, it sounds like you took a hard hit (trees are NOT soft). Don't feel bad, I've done the same with my 36, I tried to transition to tail in from head in by flying over my head. Wind caught it and before I knew it, it was upside down hitting a tree

About the control issue, did it just cut out, start doing stuff on it's own, or did you lose your orientation? If it was one of the first two, you may have some interferrance or your antenna isn't all the way out. Check and make sure your cell phone is OFF. Also, look around and make sure no one else is using their RC stuff. Finally, if the problem continues, and you have FRESH batteries in your Tx you may have an intermittent Tx, return it!

PS: were your batteries fully charged in the heli? these things DO have auto cut offs for safety reasons.

First replace the broken skids that hold your battery pack, make sure that it dosnt move when trying to hover.
