3GX - do I have a problem

24-06-2014, 10:32 PM

Hi all.

Helli is a T-Rex 550 pro DFC with a 3GX on V3.1.

I had a very gentle blade strike on grass, main shaft, blades, and all servo gears were fine but I have noticed that just before the 3GX completes initialisation and bounces the swash plate 3 times the aileron servo goes to full deflection and jumps around a bit. Once initialised all is fine and it is fine in the air. Tried swopping the servo for a new Align 615 and that does exactly the same. I had not noticed this before and I'm sure it didn't used to do that.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks

Martin

Hello Martin
My 3gx on my 600e started to do the same, so I just rebound and all was well. Has not done it since....

My 3gx has always done that once in a while. Never had an issue with it. Is the heli new? The blade strike might just have been a red herring.

Thanks all. I'll try a rebind and DIR setup and see if it goes away. Heli is about 6 months old and it didn't used to do this.
