Sometimes when im flying it and land it, when the blade is stopped, it will go about a 1/4 throttle by itself for about 2 seconds than stop, sometimes you can see it happen in the air also. my battery is charged, my reciever is chargerd, and the antena is tight but i can unscrew it with my hand, so i don't know what can cause it. What should i do, ? it makes it nearly impossible to fly.

My Blade is doing the same thing also! My Antenna is tight at the base. It almost seems that it has a mind of it's own and when it hovers it will go up about a foot and then drop back down all within a second or so. It is like the receiver is getting hit with a signal. I have tried it inside and outside at different locations and it makes no difference. Did you find any solutions to this?

Do not wrap, coil, or bunch up the receivers antenna. Run it through an antenna tube if you have to, just leave it fully extended, or you will get interference and range problems. Also, when flying, try not to point the transmitter antenna directly at the helicopter as this is the weakest signal point. Also make sure that your receiver antenna isn't running along anything metal, isn't near your battery, and isn't near your motor.

Thanks credence; I tried standing with the TX @ 90degrees to the Blade but it made no difference. I re-routed the RX Antenna wire and it also didn't seem to help. I thought i had it when i checked the TX battery voltage and it was down to 9.48V.I installed new energizer's but it made no difference! Do you have any more good advice? ACE9

That's REALLY bizzare if cutting your wire actually improved things. The only way I could understand that working is if your RX wire shipped from the factory the incorrect length to begin with, which WOULD cause reception and interference problems, as the antennas need to be certain lengths to work properly.
