Default Heli wont take off

Hi all.

I bought Phoenix and a DX8. I set it up and everything was great.

After a few days later I noticed the throttle stick was misaligned. So i took it back to my LHS and he swapped it out.

I brought it home, calibrated it with phoenix and tried to fly but it wouldn't take off.

I touched nothing. I selected the default 550E 3GX and default profile.

I gave it full throttle, the rotors spun but it didnt take off. Upon reducing the throttle it jumped up into the air. I then realized that I could fly it inverted by giving it full throttle, killing throttle then rotating it so its inverted and then when I give it full throttle it flies inverted.

Why is this happening? I selected default heli and default profile.

Please help. Between waiting a week to change my broken radio and this weird phoenix thingy I have so much down time lol.

Thanks guys
