Hi All,
Just wanted to run this by you. I was flying last weekend, and I got a rudder input on a flyby where she flew by somewhat sideways. I thought that was odd, so I brought her down close to me and checked everything out. Everything seemed OK so I went up to do some more passes to see if everything was OK.
Then, on another flyby I got a significant up elevator input. I didn't feel I had control, so I flipped throttle hold and brought her down where she was. The landing was a little rough and I lost a link and dented my tail boom, but that was the only damage.
Once on the ground, I had full control and couldn't notice anything unusual.
Given that I got two different inputs, I feel there must be something wrong with the receiver rather than a servo. The problem did not appear to be lockout.
My solution was to buy a new receiver. I'll be testing it out this weekend, but thought I would run it past you to see if you had any ideas.
Thanks!:YeaBaby:
