My CP Pro has been flying with a slight tilt lately. It takes off skidding to onw side, but once I get it in the air it's fine. Does anyone have a fix for this or is it ok. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

if its ok in the air then id say just take off faster.

Taking off with the stick pushed a little bit to one side works too, I've been messin around with it for a while.

mine does that alittle. it is worse when i try to lift off during a gust of wind.

I just recently put on new landing skids and I get some pretty good shaking and vibration before lift off but when it's spooled up all the way and in the air it seems fine. It also shakes pretty good after landing until it's spooled down most of the way. I say if it's good in the air then it's good so long as it doesn't almost tip over or anything like that.

But the problem is still there and can affect the gyro pretty bad. If you run the blades up to speed on the ground and they don't track true, the blades will balance due to rotational force but the body of the heli can vibrate unnoticed and throw everything off.

I just had a run of real bad luck with my cp pro and this was one of the culprits! When I told him it was fine once it got into the air, he knew exactly what the problem was.

ok so what was causing it for you ? i had mad vibration in tail while in the air. i changed props and it went pretty much away but now i have a small vibration. still cant track it down.

Would a heading lock gyro help correct any tail vibration? I have a problem with that too.

check to make sure that your heli sits flat on the ground. any kinda of wobble or or anything will cause a vibration when spolling up.. another small cause of my sppol up vibration was cuase by my superskids not sitting level with the other
