  • Problem withmy new Twister CPX

    Hi my name is Mike and I am new to this forum and flying Heli's.
    I started a few months ago with a little indoor Mini Twister which I have learnt to fly quite well. Then a trip to my local model shop got me to shell out for a Twister 400s. They assured me that the bigger the Heli the more stable they get. Well I took it out for a couple of flights and it was a dream to fly! only problem was the poor battery life and difficulty too swap batteries.
    I took it back to the shop and they let me trade it in for a Twister CPX (their recommendation). First flight lasted about 6 seconds. As soon as it started to lift off it just tipped over left and I couldnt stop it, so broke a blade.
    The shop blamed me, repaired the Heli and put some trainers on it. Second flight lasted 10 seconds, took off and got up to about 6 feet. It was impossible to hover, then it flipped upside down and crashed. The 3D was not switched on. I am sure the settings are wrong or giro's are not working properly.
    Can anyone help please?

    hi, mike, welcome to the forum, if you search the threads you will find plenty to help you, sorry about your early experience with your heli, im no expert but i will suggest after you have repaired the heli look on you tube for setting up rc heli and carry out a full set up from scratch, you will learn loads, once done may be look towards your local club for some one to look over the heli before trying to fly it again, its going to be costly but it will get easier. best of luck mate
