Syma S001A Spins and spins...

[kanexx2]

I've got a Syma S001A, 3 channel helicopter that 've had for a little while now. For some reason, the heli will rotate when I try and fly it. The trim buttons on the TX do not help. I think it accidentally flew into the ceiling hard once, but other than that, I haven't flown it much...maybe 5 times. Maybe the ceiling contact bent the inner shaft?? I would like to fix this if I can.

Mine does the same... It acts like it wants to stop spinning... it will slow down then speed up again...
Did you have any luck with yours???

No luck just yet. I remember someone mentioning that the heli will do that if the inner shaft is bent. It was flying fine until it struck the ceiling. :arggg:

Mine hasn't suffered a major crash.. yet..... I did figure a way to have it flying and be able to adjust the rotation without it getting out of control... I'm going to tether it and then I can deal with the rotation.
