Default height problems

Hi there

After having a couple of sucessful flights out of my skylark, it has gone back to its old tricks again where the thing won't get more than a foot off the floor. The battery has been on charge for about 2 1/2 hours (at which point its damn hot) and I can even shove the up stick (whatever the up stick is called!) fully forward but it just will not gain any height and is very unstable. As I said I have had it flying pretty good (all be it the pilot is rubbish) in the past.

As you have probably gussed by now I am a complete novice and so any advise would be brilliant.

Cheers...Stu

You may have fried your battery!!!!!

Your Heli is probably unstable do to the lack of power in the pack

I also have problems with my Skylark battery, my flight time is reduced to 60 seconds! I also have to fly when the battery is hot, once he is cold the Skylark won't come of the ground. Seems that I needs a new battery too...........
