phoenix and dxi6

finally got round to putting the sim on the laptop today, using the guide on the thread written by Bolders but the 450 size heli just seems to drift left, i dont seem to have any control over cyclic, ive recalibrated and started a fresh model but still the same, any ideas guys

have you set the swash to be 90' single servo i think the setting is. I had some weird responses when I first set my dx7s on the sim. Other mistake i made was having the radio set to plank mode :-/

yeah set servo at 90 and checked that its heli mode still acting weird.

I don't have a solution for you, but you are not the only one with this problem. My DX6i had exactly the left drift in Phoenix which you describe. Searching the internet revealed several other people with the same problem, all of them using DX6is. None of the threads I found contained any solution. It's a really really annoying problem for those affected by it; using sub-trim and fiddling with the calibration within Phoenix will minimize it but will not eliminate it. I've since sold my DX6i and bought a DX8, and this does not have the drift problem. I'm sorry not to be able to be more help.

tried doing another set up from a guy on youtube today every thing seemed to go well with the set up but still the drift to the left, quite a few reviews sy this happens a lot with dx6i, looks like i,ll be giveing up on the phoenix
