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

must be an epidemic crashinbash! i just did the same thing to my main rotor head this morning. all of it could have been avoided. my heli has been glitching badly lately but i had the itch to fly before going to work. today seemed to be the worse and my heli was all over the place. so instead of setting her down, i just decided to run the whole battery. halfway through the pack, my belt hit some tree branches. so now that im looking at a pile of parts on the kitchen, i decided to check into the glitching. i did everything and rearranged esc, ferrit ring, main power wires away from antenna wire, unspooling antenna wire and got nothing but glitches. i flicked the receiver, plugged and unplugged the servo wires and made sure they were snug. still glitching heavily. finally, i opened up the tx and wd40'd the contacts in the right stick (it was only glitching in right stick), closed it up, and turned everything on. the glitching completely vanished! if i had only been patient in trying to get rid of the glitching rather than antsy to fly, it would have saved me some bucks. but at least i get to check out how she flies with the new align pro 315 blades when they come in the mail. it just sucks that it had to happen before the weekend started.
