BeastX Roll on Takeoff

[Mslater]

Just tried the V2 that arrived this week. On spool up (no cyclic input) as the rotor reaches speed the heli tips left and back.

The swash is level all the way up to speed but as I apply a little pitch it rolls quite violently.

I've checked front back/left right movements and they appear to be correct - Ie tilt the heli left swash goes right.

Just wondering if it comes down to the mounting pads. With the v2 you get 5 pads.

The two white ones are exactly the right size for the beast and have removeable centres. Also included are 3 spartan pads that are square and don't really fit.

I mounted with the spartan pad cutting the width to fit but it was 2mm short of extending the length of the beast.

Wondering if I should use the white pads, should they be doubled up ?

This is a 600le, os50, ds610, LTG6100t.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Doubt it would have made any difference much..


But you need to leave the spartan tape to it's orginal size - This increases the surface area for the beastX

Also make sure you dont have any trim or sub trim in your radio

I used the spartan pads on my others but opted for the newer pads this time but havent tested them yet, I didnt cut the other pads down tho just left the bits sticking out the sides, Also as said before there should be no trim or sub trim used, I totaly reset my models that i have just converted

Put the new pad on - took centre out - flying ok.

At least you got it sorted now Mark.

Hi,

it sounds like a vibration problem. Check that there is enough slack in the wires and the case doesn't touch the frame anywhere.

having same issue with my kds at the mo. Been using foam tape but not seem to work every time. sometimes be ok, others will fly wildly all over the place. Have just ordered some futaba 4mm gyro pads see if they help.

Presumably this is the flymentor ?

I had one but got rid of it quickly because it would radomly tilt the swash - even when sat on the bench.

It seemed there was a faulty batch at one stage with dry joints on the sensors - never got this confirmed because KDS would not support the product.

yes the flymentor! But did notice there were also some frame spacers missing and I was getting massive vibes in the whole heli. Also part of the motor cooler was broken off and poss causing vibes and the head was bent and the blades not balanced. So all in all Think it as something to do with it lol! I did get it to sit nice about 2ft of the ground and hover untl battery went flat!
