Default tail problem with increased throttle

Hello,

I can't get my helicopter to hover at the same altitude. I find that once I get it into the air, one click more throttle sends it to the roof so i go back down one click and the heli goes to the ground then bounces back up and then hovers 1-2 inches off the ground. All the while having this problem with the tail. every time i increase the throttle, the tail swings left and while I fly I still have to add like 1/2 right stick to keep the tail towards me.

Oh. and I have the optic 6 transmitter if that helps any


thanks

first off i would take the cover off of the transmitter and remove the "clicking"feature off. as for the tail,sounds like a gyro problem,or at least an adjustment.

if you have a stock mixing board,it sounds like you need to increase the mixing.most have 2 adjustments,mixing and gyro gain(sensitivity)
and like rcgrinch said remove the throttle clicker inside your radio.

Morning,

If you have throttle curves.... change them . Also if you have revolution mixing, turn it off and let your gyro take over.

Regards,
Solo.
