Mcpx clockwise tick

i doubt very much its a problem with the 3in1.

Gecko501 sounds like your needing some new, fresh batteries maybe?

[Gecko501]

Nope batteries are new only few flights old and does it with all 12 of them I suspect it's my motor or maybe I'm not at zero at mid stick so will check it out later today

[n00by]

a bad connection some where then i'd say!

don't see how not having 0 pitch at midstick would make any difference? i doubt a little to much positive pitch would cause that.

sounds like something wants ampage and it isn't getting what it needs, thats the usual reason for the kind of power problem your having, unless it is the motor thats on its ass.

Mine does it more when fully charged, after about 1 min of flying it doesn't happen

Here's some video footage of the problem.

Hi Nooby,

I've checked battery leads and connections are sound to the 3 in 1, I've tried two other motors, a standard one and my brushless with the 550mAh batteries, still the same. I don't see how this can be anything other than the 3 in 1. Nothing looks to have obviously blown so its going back to HH next week, not going to start meddling with the soldering iron!

hmmm that does look rather strange and not quite what i thought was happening, got to be the 3in1 then eh lol

weird how the servos are still working fine.

[BavarianRob]

Yep, definitely a strange one, been driving me nuts for days!

[Gecko501]

Looks like I fixed mine.... Pushrods were bent so replaced them last week turns out I was way off zero pitch at mid stick.... As soon as I levelled swash and sorted zero at mid stick no more probs.... Until I snapped my boom on first batt!!!! Glad I had a spare rod with me!!!

[BavarianRob]

Sorted mine now, two of the three main shaft bearings were shot on the MicroHeli frame, replaced and no more tail ticking! Happy days!

hmm i might try that as not replaced mine yet

[BavarianRob]

Yep, definitely worth a look, was the only thing I hadn't checked! As always!

Just taken a look at mine (been flying the lad's recently!) and I think my main shaft is split as you can grab the head and gear and twist from side to side! Will replace it and see if that helps...
