Hi,

I have the Heli-Max AXE CP. I was flying it around our warehouse today without any problems. The battery started to die so I landed and shut it off and took it to my desk to charge. After the light came on Green again, I took the heli back to the warehouse for another flight. I started to throttle up, the blades all started turning, I saw the collective pitch changing and nothing. I advanced the collective further, still nothing. I could advance the collective up and down and watch the heli try to lift off, but it wouldn't break ground. I could almost make the thing bounce up and down, but it wouldn't lift. I also heard an unusual sound as it spooled up.

I was kinda thinking I have a dead cell in the battery(stock battery) but then I read somewhere that people have had problems with the board frying. I wouldn't think it's the board because all functions work normally, it just won't fly.

I have only flown the heli 5 times. I have only had it in my house for 3 weeks.

Anybody have any ideas to help me out before I waste a day calling support?

Thanks,
Mike
