    When i try to fly helis they fly off to the left and i am unable to control them, how do i stop them from drifting off?

    1) Check the weather settings are set to normal.

    2) Use the right AIL trim mate - Make sure all trims are set to the centre stick. then slowly make the required adjustment input.

    3) What heli are you trying to fly? Sometimes, there is a tendency in IC helis to tip (a fraction... to the left... strangely).

      (3) above is the sidewash of the tail rotor. You'll notice it especially with small helis.
      But it's far from "uncontrollable".

        Should have been more specific. Should have been more precise.

        Cheers mate!

          Thanks for reply, it seems that all outdoor helis are doing this, I have checked weather-normal (no wind), I own several helis including the honeybee king2, and can fly these ok. But when I fly any outdoor heli on Pheonix - throttle up only they just drift off to the left at quite a rate, I am using a DX6i do you think its got somethin to do with the TX?

              Daft question but did you set up a new model on ur Tx, on normal heli mode (not ccpm)?

                Hi Harry, yes I opened a new channel(model) number on tx, was this correct?
