Default RE: Belt CP Spinning Help!

Helis are not easy to get started in, especially on your own. The correct set up and problem solving can take a lot of time. My first suggestion is to find someone local from a club or something that can help you in person.

For now here are a couple things you can do to check everything is working:

Make sure the tail servo is not stripped, just move it back and forth by hand and feel for anything not smooth.

check to make sure the gyro is working and in the correct direction, with everything plugged in correctly and turned on lift the heli up by the landing skids and rotate it quickly in one direction then the other and look to make sure the servo is reacting to that movement. The pitch of the tail blades should increase when the heli nose is rotated left (from the top).
