I have just finished a hornet electric helicopter and am having problems with the left/ right cyclic. Current status, helo is balanced all axes. Tracking is good. Tail rotor is finally set. The paddles on the flybar are aligned.
The problem is that the helo drifts to the left, badly. Thank God that i have the training sticks attached. All the right trim and right stick will not counter this left hand tendency, although full right everything does reduce this tendency, in fact, the swashplate cannot move any further to the right.
I have flown helos in the past and have set them up with help as well as myself, so i am familiar with setting up a helo, but this has me stumped. Any advice would be helpful.
