RE: ........."BELT-CP THREAD"........

Before you rush out and get a short whip or deans antenna, you should read up on how using them or cutting the standard length antenna will decrease your range. Why pay money to decrease your models...

RE: ........."BELT-CP THREAD"........

Towards the head. Small movements of the tail servo on the boom do a lot.. so take your time. If you go too far, the tail will spin the other way, then you can just slide the servo back a little...

RE: ........."BELT-CP THREAD"........

Yup, the main spins CW and the tail blades must counter the CCW frame rotation or CCW tail kick caused by the main blades spinning. To see it in action you can remove the tail blades and spin up the...

RE: ........."BELT-CP THREAD"........

If the belt is too loose or the tail rotors don't have enough speed to counter the rotation of the main blades, your heli will spin CCW (tail out to the right) just like it is now. Try to lower the...

RE: ........."BELT-CP THREAD"........

Hi Golfxzq,

It's normal for the Esky HH gyro's servo to drift like that when the heli is stationary in HH mode. I've found that once the servo is adjusted on the boom correctly that I can use...

RE: ........."BELT-CP THREAD"........

I understand and by all means don't rush to lose the gear if you don't feel your ready. I was just wondering if it would settle down at the 4' range for you without the gear on. If you have a sim,...

RE: ........."BELT-CP THREAD"........

I think you did well considering you have the training gear on and are flying in that area where you might be getting some wash. Have you tried moving to a larger area, taking of the training gear...

RE: ........."BELT-CP THREAD"........

In addition to the great suggestions and responses so far, check that the main and tail blades are installed correctly. I know it sounds silly, but it can happen by mistake and it only takes a sec...

RE: ........."BELT-CP THREAD"........

Closely compare the orientation of the servos on both birds as well as the servo arms.


I think you would have to adjust the servo on a new boom and fine tune it a bit regardless and once it's...

RE: ........."BELT-CP THREAD"........

capngriz,

RE: ........."BELT-CP THREAD"........

Hey Druss,
How do you handle the condensation forming on the electronics and stuff when you come in from flying in the cold?
