flying crooked

countryrunner · 04-27-2012, 11:49 PM

hey guys i just got my walkera back in action and it fly's pretty well now but there is a small problem it fly's crooked now like if you are flying it and looking at if from the back the right so dips down more than the left but does not drift that way though. any ideas? and i am having some tail twitching too(can't remember what causes that) and im going to get the 2.9g motor but do i really need to upgrade the main motor to?

That's normal for fp helis tail twitching may be caused by gyro sen. or the motor may be on it's way out.

well i am thinking about upgrading to the 2.9g motor but wow hobbies says i need to upgrade my main motor too is that true?

That may be true as the original motor may be underpowered.
I don't know if you've seen my thread on cb100 mod you can do the modding yourself.

The tilt of the mainshaft as compared to true vertical is intentional and serves a purpose. Perhaps you just never looked closely at it before. The upgraded tail motor is pointless without a need for the power and will likely be detrimental to feel and control if not coupled with a more powerful main. The twitching is probably a result of excessive vibration and/or excessive gyro sens/gain. I suggest avoiding wow hobbies whenever possible, but that's for personal reasons.
