Default Dragon 36 take off -help!!!!

Hi found this forum a while ago, seems to be the best one around. I have now got a dragonfly 36 to start with but looking on this forum the problem i am having seems to have cropped up before although i cant find any threads regarding this. juist wonder if any one knows where to look??
Problem is the heli seems to be trimmed ok, the sticks move appropriate servos corectly even the gyro seems to be working ok but when speed is increased the heli wont lift off, if i go to full throttle at sounds as though it should go light on the skids which it doesnt. The tx is in normal mode although i have tried 3d mode and adj plt/pzt controls, no difference. Any ideas where i can find threads and answers for this would be appreciated. Many thanks , Newbee

FOUND PROBLEM>>> checking again i find the servo that moves pitch up down wasnt moving at all, plugged it in properly and it moves, but the pitch seems to be changing the wrong way, its pressing the heli down not lifting up, have i got an australian model??? - joke-- any ideas would be appreciated though.

There should be a servo-reversal dip switch on your Tx. Search these forums for "PZT PLT" and you'll find posts discussing which switch does what.
