My Feedback: (41)
Recently the 3n1 and the receiver went out on my Axe. Helimax sent me new ones and then I found out I had a bad servo. I replaced the servo today but something isnt right. When I plug the battery in everything centers as it should but if you move the right stick around then stop one of the servos is jumping. Im new to helis so i dont really know the names of everything. It the servo on the back on the right side when looking from the tail. Also when you spin it up the tail rotor motor seems to jump (not run smoothly).I had no problems til the esc and all that went bad with the tail. Also does the 3n1 come from the factory adjusted when you replace it or do I need to adjust if so please give me some tips. Also if someone could post a pic or two of their receiver and let me know where everything plugs in and on what channel(I think the channels are labeled) so I can make sure I have everything right. I tried to hover a little with it but the response to my controls were minimal. The servos were doing what they were supposed to but the Heli itself wasnt responding well. PLEASE HELP!!! Also this heli has only been flown about 20 times with no bad crashes. The tail rotor holds it fairly straight but its jumpy. I can give full right roll and it doesnt want to go right but barely. Same thing with all controls. If you can tell me what each servo is supposed to do with each control movement like when I use left roll(right stick left) which way should each servo move.THANKS

The new 3in1 will need some adjustment. Look at the manual to help. I would suggest that the next time the 3N1 goes bad, you spend the money on a heading hold gyro, and 2 separate ESCs to control the 2 motors. I went through several 3n1s and finally gave up and went separates. The servo jumping is kind of strange. If it's moving alot, then I wonder if your receiver or servo is bad. I would try replacing the servo first since they just sent you a new receiver. If when you move the cyclic the servo movement is erratic than I would suspect the servo is shot. It is also possible you are getting interference on your receiver from some other source, but I would suspect the servo first.
