video of my bird freaking out..

bradharvy · 05-03-2012, 07:36 AM

Here is my novus 125CP 3axis.. It started acting funny and would not bind to the 2801 I just received, Bummed out. I finally got it to bind and it just did not want to fly. It tilted the swash with only 1 servo instead of 1 going up, and the other side pulling down, wasn't right.
So I go back to the helimax tx and here's what I get...

YouTube

Any one have any ideas? As I am just getting frustrated with this heli!!! as soon as I spooled it down and quit filming it would not start up again till I played with it. Seems ta fly ok once in the air>>>....

Have you checked your Battery to ESC to RX connection? seems like it's getting intermittent power.

Interesting method of fault finding in your video, what was the next step, hitting it with a hammer?

Make sure all 3 pins for the motor power cable are connected. I had this problem when I accidentally plugged it in so that only 2 were connected

I also had this problem when I was using an ESC that was not powerful enough for the motor (V120D02S with the ESC from 4G6S). I put the correct ESC in and it worked right away. It looks like the stock motor in your video, so maybe your ESC is failing.

Finally, make sure the motor isn't up against the main gear too tightly. If it's too tight, it binds.

Thanks guys. I have a feeling it's the esc. It only has , not even 10 flights on it... I will transfer my extra esc from my 120DO2S and see if that fixes it. That esc should work, right?
