bl tail problem

[txflyer]

ok so i got my motor in, everything installed. powered up , tail doesnt work. motor doesnt spin. turns out the tail esc arms with right stick and works from the right stick. but also the right stick still controls what its supposed to ... any ideas

[txflyer]

ok so this is really pissing me. the stupid tail motor isnt acting right. spinning up by its self and all of that stupid crap. im almost to the point of giving up. nothing is working with the bl dd setup..

Right stick? It should be left stick. Do you have the connection to the gyro on the right way? Is the ESC connected to the battery with the right polarity? If you have a cam take some pictures of th connections.

well now it works with the left stick but has a mind of its own. oh by the way, that LITTLE ass motor can and will spin fast enough to blow a press on 2030 or 30\20 prop right on off. i got smacked in the head by it. everything is plugged in correctly so i dunno. im guess my tail esc is screwed. man i would hace got the cc10 and this bl motor for like 67 bucks, now i gotta spend 65ish for just a cc10

use the 3020 in push configuration. That way the prop blat is keeping it on the motor shaft. Bummer about the $65 that was a good deal.

So its still not flying? Did you get your BEC reactivated on the main ESC?

[txflyer]

nah not yet, ive been recovering from last night. my plan of attack is to solder another plug i have laying around on to my main bl esc. since i cut the bec pin off the wire.i hope that its just screwy like this cuz the tail esc is powering the rx and servos, and then still trying to power a bl motor.

reason for thinking this even tho i had a good amount to many. i wrote some stuff down. with the main unplugged everythings in terms of the tail motor and gyro. i can swig it side to side and it works. seems kinda halfed ass working but worked.with the main plugged in, the tail was dead.
if i moved the left stick past half stick give or take. it would shut off. in both directions. oh and the the tail esc was hot. atlest i think thats what i wrote down. i think next time i drink and work on helis im going to use a voice recorder. but this problem is bugging me. that was why i worked on it last night. i coudl stop running down a check list in my mind.end of this week makes 2 weeks since i saw the underside of my heli with out me holding it.

You could set your endpoints differently, sounds like they are too high on the rudder channel. Full left rudder and the tail motor should stop completely.

[txflyer]

it stops around half left rudder. i went out today and got a cc10 and castle link. im guessing the esc has a problem. im using the stock radio , so i dont know if i can adjust end points.
