  • Numpty!

    Having a play with my 450 this afternoon and was playing around on my DX7s trying to reverse the rudder channel as replaced servo on the tail when instead I accidentally decided to reverse the throttle channel and no I didn't have TH on :-( and you can imagine what happened next! Ah well managed to bring her down in one piece however just a note to everyone always check TH when fiddling!

    Best thing to do when fiddling with transmitter with live heli is always unplug two wires from the motor to avoid any mishaps and brown trousers.

      FYI, throttle hold wouldn't have helped you here; your throttle would have been stuck at wide open.
