View Full Version : Trimming the carpet

When the 400 gets light on the skids, just before liftoff, the rotor disk tips to the right. The first time it smacked the carpet with authority. Nothing damaged, but it still exhibits the same tendency.

I accidentally reset the DX6 to the factory specs, after my LHS was nice enough to pull a preflight before the sale.

As you can probably tell I'm new to this game, but let me remind all you jaded rotorheads, this hobby, despite all its techeadaches, is a ball.

Thanks

In think there are all the radio settings in the book. If iits tilting to the right, trimming to the left should help.
