well I got my CX2 in I flew it and of course I hit something. when I changed Rotors the contrlls got real sluggish, what could cause this? I have no back cyclic and the swash plate is level, and every thing is free, but i did put in the Heat Sink. and nothing is bent that i can tell. :dontknow

make sure you didnt screw up a servo

Did you get the right blades on the right location? Also, make sure fly bar is attached to the correct side of the top rotor

Also check your swash plate, it is possible it split in half. can be glued or pressed back together.

Well I dont know if it is a common problem but when my CX2 came from the factory the screw holding the servo arm on the left servo was loose, not enough that the arm fell off just so that it slid far enopugh off that it was not grabbing it gear. I tightened it up and it flew fine. Well almost I have the rudder trim maxed out to the rite, I think I just need to adjust the pot or the linkage. I adjusted the pot but in my haste I realized that i had low bat so I put it back it midrange. I will charge the bat and fly it again and see how it does.

One more question,when I get ready to move to the second hole on the servo arm what adjustments am I going to have to make? I am flying the H&** out of my cx but I cant wait until my servo for my CPP gets here. should be 3or 4 more days.

just move out 1 hole, nothing else to do, enjoy the more responsive cyclic!

When adjusting the proportional pot, a little adjustment is all that is needed.

well when I adjusted the pot it had no effect, it is still yawing left. i dont want to jump to the second hole till I get ot zeroed in rite I am thinking that I might meed to adjust the swash connecting arm a half turn or so. Would that be the rite conclusion. Other than that I have am having a ball. I have put 6 packs thru it so far and have replaced that many blades, but I fly in a small room so I expect that and the A/C in the room really screws with me but when I get into our big flying room I really get some quality flying in.
