When you say "swing", are you talking about the "pendulum effect"?
BTW- my AXe CP drifts left as well.....but if you just gun the throttle just a bit, you kind of just bypass that and can get to a more stable zone(so to speak).
My big problem is that annoying "throttle cut" at about 60%(i estimate)......heli just slams into the ground......very hard, then bounce back into a hover.This,in my opinion.....SUCKS.
Why does it do this? Does on sim as well!!!!!!
That is called a piece of junk transmitter. Sounds like you have a "dead spot" in the potentiometer that controls the throttle. I would suggest contacting the hobby shop for a replacement. The clue is that is also does it on the sim. If it was the receiver it would only do it when flying the actual bird.

The sim (Realflight 3.5)does same thing as the real xmtr,also some of the other heli's in the sim do the same thing,from what I have noticed.

Axe CP
Dolphin 3D
Dominion 3D(.46 heli)&(90)
Ecureuil & scale head
Schweizer


As far as I can tell, the above all have some sort of throttle glitch at about 60% or so
I am just trying to figure out why the Axe CP does it SO bad.Maybe it has something to do with being CP......but why would they design such a flaw into the thing?????
