backwards flight

[shaggybirdman]

ok i got a problem. when bringing my 4#6 tail in back to me it goes back about a foot then stops, and goes forward then back. what gives?

i leveled the servo arms. best i could get was to have them 1 spline up, or down. i chose down. then sub trimmed it level. then messed with the swash links to get it best as i could to hover still.

also got a progressive TBE. the fly bar looks straight. the paddles look level. i gotta look at the feathering shaft, and see if it's bent, or not.

side in hovering is a major pain as well.

i'm glad the good weather is coming, so these will probably get parked, and i'll be flying the hell out of my 450, and 550.

I have the same problem. I if i bring it back slowly it will stop and move forward a foot. I think the forward motion of the TBE over powers the orders from my TX. If I pull back on the stick "hard" it does not happen. The problem is the TBE........I think.

i have no idea myself. that does make sense though, but still sucks.

I wonder how the flybarless gyro will affect the TBE. Do you have the Tech head?

[shaggybirdman]

no not yet. i'd like it, but gotta get it yet. your lucky. no matter what i do it stalls in reverse flight. rather bummed about it.

i got the advanced head walkera makes, and it does the stall thing when giving full well alot of forward cyclic.

it also pogo's alot too. do i need a better motor to give it more head speed?

other than those 2 problems it flies ok, but my cb100 out flies consistently all the time.
