I just got blade cp, and i have a problem with my controller[
], when i move my elevator the alerons are are also moving slightly. I went to lhs and they gave me a whole bunch of crap. I was wondering if anyone has had this problem and if anyone knows how to fix it. I know the controller is defective, because ichecked it on the simulator and there you can really see the problem when your trimming it you can really see the alierons move. and its imposible to fly an airplane, I have like 5 years of airplane experience. ( I am sorry that im talking in airplane temrs, is just that im used to use the heli tems yet).
any suggestions are greatly apreciated
thanks
p.s. the LHS is giving a lot of **** saying that im the one controling it wrong. What should I do?

Are you trying to use Blade CP transmitter to control a fixed wing model? This will not work--this TX has a hard-wired CCPM, which can't be disabled. As a result, when you move a single control, several servos move. This way, three servos controlling a 120-degree swashplate work together...
If you connect this TX to a computer using a regular interface cable, you'll see the same thing: moving throttle stick results in 4 channels moving in different directions, aileron affects 2 channels, elevator three. The only way to use E-flite Blade CP transmitter (and its twin brothers E-Sky and Twister "Channels Six"" CCPM transmitters) with any simulator is to get a CCPM "un-mixing" USB interface from milehighwings.com.
So, your LHS people might have been right...

ok I understand that, but how can you xplain bthe fact that when i tried to fly the airplane in the simulator and the the airplane goes right when I pull the elevator it automatically tilts to the right the same thing goes on with the heli and the heli simulator, i tried trimming it like 10 diferent times, in all the ways posible. This is vvery frustating.
I know its the controller. im thinking in going back and just like create a scene in the store, I am good at that. See if maybe that will work. All i want is another remote nothing else. i lioke the heli and have no problem with it.
Thanks for your responce i apreciate it.

Please read my previous message carefully: the channel mixing is done in the transmitter itself! Id doesn't matter what you are flying in the simulator, planes or helies. If the channels come to the sim already mixed, the sim can't do anything...
In other words, Blade CP transmitter can only be used with this particular helie. It has CCPM, which you can't turn off to fly a fixed wing plane or to use this TX with a simulator (unless you get a CCPM "unmixing" interface).
The only fault of LHS people would be if they don't explain this to you when selling the transmitter.

thanks a lot for your help, I went there again and they tried my heli, well the problem wasent what i said (your right), but they did said the transmiter was extremlly twiky, so the manager came into his sence and did gave me a new one. Now at least I can hoover before it was imposible to hoover. But thanks at least I learned something.
The problem with the hobby store is that theres 2 sales men there that are not nice and a little rude people, but the manager is nice, and so is another salesmen the one who sold me the heli he is very nice guy.
But I like that hobby store so i will keep on going there.
If they would of explained me that the transmiter mixes the channels himself I would of known and just dropped it.
thanks a lot. I apriciatte your help.[8D]
