Lately my CX2 has developed a problem that is hard to describe but I will try any way.
Flying around normally, everything seems fine. Then all of a sudden it is turning or pointing it's nose to the ground more than I have seen this heli capable of doing. No matter what I do with the sticks, it keeps that angle until it eats the ground.
For example, normally if you push the cyclic stick all the way forward the heli may be capable of tilting 15 degrees (not a real number, just an example). But it randomly will tilt 45 degrees which is beyond controllable for a fixed pitch heli. So it crashes.
Any ideas? My first thought was flybar, but it is nice and loose, seems to be doing it's job, maybe a split swash, it looks OK. I think I will install a new one just in case.
Has any one seem this and what did you do to fix it?
Thanks in advance!
