heliTV, I am having so much fun, like a kid in a toy shop.

Sounds like you're well on the way to being addicted!

yes youre right I will be buying more batteries soon, I have already charged it 8 times today

One battery just isn't enough

BTW when the charger light stays on even though you have removed the lipo its time to replace the charger batteries. I only got 8 charges out of the stock ones, but if you stick a decent set in they should last a while.

if you still have the lama here is a quick set up guide to get it flying right.
to start hover the heli.
looking from the tail of the heli
if it drifts sideways.and the trim is not enough to control it. centre the trim....pop off the ball link on the left servo arm. if the heli is drifting right..shorten the rod(screw the loop on further). half a turn and retry hovering if its drifting left lengthen it.
if the heli is drifting forward centre the trim pop off the right hand ball link and shorten the rod...backwards lengthen it.... remember half a turn at a time. be patient and you will get it hovering steady with no trim needed at all.

now the tail. hover the heli it should now be in a nice steady hover if the tail drifts right with no input.. land the heli turn the proportion pot anti clockwise very slightly.left drift turn clockwise..then disconnect the battery..reconnect and re-hover. small adjustments be patient. once the tail doesn't drift...apply input to the rudder and release if the heli continues to turn slightly then slowly settles add gain. if it is reluctant to turn and wags reduce gain.( you can do this without disconnecting each time)

try this mate its copied and pasted from an earlier thread i did

try the fms flight sim then think about phoenix fs its light years ahead

the trex 250 is a pretty good cp heli that is the size of a lama yet you can fly it outside and it can go inverted , only problem is though... cost...
