If it regards tail drifting in flight then its a fact that you cant elliminate it on that model. Not sure if this is your problem mind? just guessing here.

lama help

hi mate just got lama v4 keepsturning slightly left, ihave trimmed prop pot little by anti clock but still keeps turning. your help would be much appreciated. sorry just got in and saw your reply .thanks ron

The reason you cant get it perfect is... as the power is drawn from the lipo pack and the voltage gets less and less then it makes the mixer/gyro drift. Its a fact you'll never nail the tail on that co-axial. The Blade CX2 is about the best. Apparently it doesnt do it as bad though. Ive heard stories of people soldering some electronic component somewhere on them and eliminating the problem. Dont know if its possible. Ill imagine its something to keep the voltage regulated and constant somehow.
Cheers

Had the same problem with my Lama 5. Not long after that one of the motors burned out, so it could be that one of your motors is defective (my lama was only 2 weeks old).

You could try swapping the motors round and see if it rotates the other way.

Hope this helps.

when your making the adjustments to the pro pot... after you have made them your cycling the power arnt you???

Well I hope you get it sorted as best as, the BCX2 when trimmed to perfection will point in the same direction until the batt runs dry, this I know isn't very helpful.

Strangely having the gain high and the trim slightly out can make contras fly very extremely within the boundary's of coaxial machines, but you really need to know what your doing with a few months of hard practice behind you, or your total it every five minutes.

Toilet Bowl Effect. The heli does not yaw, but begins a pendulum like motion around the top of the flight bar (so the body moves in circles while facing the same way).

Mine was solved by correcting the tracking of the top blades. Check your manual and see if they describe the procedure, or look for more posts on it.
