heli throttling problem. Scary
Hello Everyone,
Everytime when I plug the heli in, the main blades just starts spinning. I don't know what could be the problem. I have the throttle curve set to 0% at Lowest on my dx6i.
the only safe thing for me to do is to flip the throttle hold before plugging in. After that, immediately when I flip the throttle hold back, the blade just starts spinning already. What could be the problem?

Hey Bro
What ESC are you using. Have you tried setting the throttle range? make sure the throttle trim button is in the center of the indicator. Check the servo travel window and see if the cursor for the throttle channel is at the first bar. If not use sub trim to get it there.
Cheers

Hey phillyD,
The throttle is at the first bar. They ESC is a dynam 40a. I just pulled this out of my RTF Dynam Erazor 450. Is this a problem?

Sounds like your throttle channel is reversed, try reversing channel 3, and make sure to remove your blades untill you get it sorted!!!

If this is a collective pitch heli...make sure you are not in "idle up" or "stunt" flight mode. That could have the same result as a reversed throttle on the TX
