<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0mm 0mm 10pt"><font face="Calibri">I would really appreciate some feedback. I have a CB 100 (which I would recommend to any flyer who is upgrading from a coax). This little machine is very stable in a hover – except for one problem; it slowly rotates in an anti clockwise direction within a half to one meter radius, without any nose-drift.</font></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0mm 0mm 10pt"><font face="Calibri">My CB 100 has taken a good few nocks, but there is no unusual vibration or external damage.</font></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0mm 0mm 10pt"><font face="Calibri">I hope that you can give me some suggestions to remedy this problem, as I’m having difficulty controlling my heli in my lounge – which is big enough to cause a battery hen to feel claustrophobic!</font></p>

take your flybar off and make sure it is perfectly straight (roll it on a flat surface) if it is bent then that is the cause of your rotation aka TBE (toilet bowl effect)

Thanks a lot for your advice which has been a big help. Although the fly bar looked ok at a glance, it was slightly bent when removed and examined - after straightening it out the rotational problem disappeared.</p>
Many thanks to GenkDesu and AtTheCross for your help.</p>
