Default RE: Giving up on axe cpv3

Hi Emfanone,

It looks like my radio stuffs (including the servos) are working fine. I unplugged the main motor and test all the control. They response well. I flew gas fixed wing before and I am fairly familiar with the radio. I have no experience with the gyro and little experience with the ESC though. However, I can say that the electronics work fine. I think helos are precision machines which means they must be trimmed precisely to fly well and this is where I have zero knowledge and experience. So I need to find someone with knowledge and experience to help me.

My suggestion is finding someone to help you to check the whole thing. I have the impression that there is a combination of problems with your Axe's electronics, not only the TX alone. If this is the case, then you need to talk to Helimax and send the bird to them to fix or exchange. It doesn't make sense to spend more money for the electronics unless I need to improve the Axe's performance. And I would invest into a higher class helo rather than upgrading the Axe.

Don't give up bro. It's your money and it's your right.

Happy New Year and Happy Flying!
