Newbi question here , is any body getting there cx2 to hover in 1 spot or do you have to constantly play withe the sticks to do that ?

If you can get it a few feet above the floor, out of "ground effect," and you're in a big enough room where the breeze generated by the rotating blades doesn't wash back against the heli, then it should hover steady as a rock, hands off. However, few have this luxury, and thus the "wind" the heli creates will actually disrupt its movement, and you'll get a less steady hover. In other words, high enough up, in a big enough room, it'll hover steady. That is, if all the mechanics are properly balanced and adjusted on the heli. If you keep it near the floor, it's going to want to drift all over the place. Neall

What altitude are you at? Like Ndoren says. If your in "ground effect", the updraft of wind caused by the rotors being too low to the ground will make the heli a little unstable. The ground effect zone for the CX is only about 1-2 feet though. If you're still having this problem above that altitude, you may need to level your swashplate.

Trimming also plays a role. Until you get it trimmed right it will drift alot (usually in the same direction)
It is a catch 22 with any heli. You have to fly it to get a good trim but if you are new you can't really fly well so you want to stay close to the ground.
If you have a friend that can fly one reasonably well have him trim it out for you. (I trimmed my neighbors out the other day and now he can handle it reasonably well by himself)

The cx can definitely hover on it's own a couple of feet off the floor in a windless environment.
Swashplate setup and Trimming is everything, assuming the proportional is set.
If your new , have a experienced pilot trim it that can do so in hover.
Don't worry, you''l be able to do so yourself in no time , it's just practise, practise and will.
I thought my cp pro was an animal the first day i had it and now have come to realize that with enough time spent in set up and trimming it will hover in one spot with very little stick movement at all.
Be patient and have fun.

my rule of thumb is,
Practice when you are in the right mindset.
If i feel that I'm in control of the heli I continue to fly.
If I have a day were i feel the heli is in control of me and I'm just trying to catch up, I put it away .

Right on for the replies guys its hover good it just wants to turn right I m stilll playing with the settings ,somebody said something about a swashplate how do you balance that?

I mentioned the swashplate thing earlier. The swashplate needs to be at a right angle to the rotor shaft on all sides. To do that:

1. disconnect your motors (make sure you note where and how they plug in to the Rcvr to avoid problems later)
2. center all sticks and trims except for the throttle. Throttle is full down for stick and trim.
3. Power on the Transmitter and plug in the heli battery.
4. Make sure your servo arms are as close to center as possible. Remove the arms and reposition if necessary.
5. Adjust the clevises on your servo push rods to get the swashplate level (90 degrees from the shaft at all points).
6. Put everything back together and test fly.

The problem with an un-leveled swashplate is that the heli will drift towards whatever point the swashplate is tilting, so you'll constantly be fighting it.

Lemme know how it works out.
