just thought id run this by here to see if anyone can shed some light.i just thought id have a play with my first heli i bought to learn on its a twister cp, its been on the shelf for about two years but last flew perfect. ive just checked it over and the swashplate is way out at mid stick in fact the servo has very little movement one way and full travel the other way.what can cause this? i admit not checking it over when i last used it but it flew spot on, surely a servo cannot move on its own overtime,any ideas?

Have you changed any wireing? since you checked it over. Could it be a loose connection?

dust in the gears? strip the servo, clean the gears, light grease and see if it still happensPGK

Perhaps unknowingly the model has had a knock take the servo arm off and look at the teeth to see if there is any damage to them the arm may have jumped a few teeth giving you the uneven throws if this has happened you must replace the servo arm putting it back in its correct position will be a crash waiting to happenT-rex700 flybarless Beastx

When you mess around with the servo arms etc, make sure to use a swash leveler when your done. Then through the leveling and then checking the blade pitch.

thanks for replys,no ive not changed any wireing and the connections appear to be good. ive moved the arm to the correct position and tested it and done two flights about five mins each and it all appears ok now.maybe the mrs has knocked it and not said anything,wait till she gets in from work!!!!
thanks lads
