CX Problem Won't Lift

[trijeff]

:arggg:
I have had my crashes with no problem so far, now I have a problem with lift, the Heli is more unstable than usual and a little more difficult to hover in one place. Anyone have any ideas what might be the problem?
I Have just changed blades but have checked and recheck them.

Thanks,

check the lower hub. I'm guessing you've may have snapped one or more of the pins that hold the lower blades. This makes the Heli unstable and fly the "toilet bowl effect". I suggest you invest in the metal lower hub asap.

how many flights do you have on the motors and batts.
when the motors start to go lift is a problem. mine woulod fly for 30 sec. then drop rest it ro a sec and it would fly for 30 sec. and drop changed out the motors and now no problem.

You might also check the set screws on the lower rotor and the gears.

I've had similar experiences where the screw or screws are not firmly tight on the flat areas of the shafts.

Good luck! :)
