E-sky Honey Bee king 2

Hey! I've got some parts to build a HBK2 but now when i've built it and when I tried to fly it I saw that it "tilts" backwards so the props in the back will touch the ground it litterly pushing the back rod to the ground, weight relatated maybe or could there be a fine adjustment to make it work?

Hi dcube..never had a K-2, but my K-3 was slightly tailheavy when new. The Center of Gravity (COG) is important for stable flight. To check the COG, intall the battery and canopy like its ready to fly, then rotate the main rotor so the blades stick out to either side. Simply lift the heli under the blade grips while noting if the tail rises up off the table 1st, or the nose rises 1st, then adjust the COG until the heli stays level as you raise it. Most helis are slightly tail heavy and may need some adjustment to the battery position, or even add a bit of weight to the front if you cant make the battey position work.

The other possibility is that the swash is not level, or the linkage lengths from servos to swash plate are not right. Are you familiar with setting up a ccpm rotor from the servos on up the rotor.....making sure everything is level at each step?

Hi dcube
what size battery are you using most of us with K2 extended the battery tray forward to get the cog forward
