hi, there are a whole lot of things that could have gone wrong with your hellicopter. i only own one hellicopter but i can try my best to help you. what i would do is check all of your wire conections and the battery charger and all of the basics. the second choice is to go to your local hobby shop and ask them about the problem, and don't forget to bring your helli with you. usualy seeing something in person will help the person fix the problem. make sure the person your talking to has experience with rc hellicopters. i hope your problem is solved soon. Austin.

also, check the manaul and see if it says anything about the gyro, i was trying to find the manual to my 401 gyro but i cant....it has what flashes mean what, is it a steady blinking or does it blind 2-3 times fast then pause and repeat?

[8D]First turn on the trans. Then set your heli where you are going to attempt lift off, then plug in your flight batt. Do NOT
move the heli in any way after you plug in heli power. The gyro could take up too 10 second's to innilize, or turn on, when it lock's on the light should turn SOLID red.

first make sure all trims are centered then move the throttle trim all the way down then make sure throttle stick is at bottom or 0 throttle then turn on transmitter then plug in esc on heli the red light should blink rapidly dont touch the heli and it will stop blinking in 5-15 sec or so try that i have a king 2 also good luck

The rudder subtrim is slid one way or the other off center. When you were flying or adjusting you moved that trim slider in one direction or the other. (its the one directly under the left stick) Center that trim slider and then power up and your gyro should arm. Those rate gyros on the HBK's are very picky about that.
