| Re: Strange Blade 400 problem? This is normal when on the ground
It is called Ground Effect. It should not be a problem once you get airborn.
However, until you do get airborn, you won't know for sure if there is too much
"left" in the heli so I would suggest taking off/hovering just a foot or so in height.
Be ready to input a little right if needed. I assume that you have training gear on the heli, right? If not, get some or make some.
Most helicopters will want to drift a little to the left when they get light on the skids but this does go away when the heli gets up to a height equal or greater than their rotor diameter.
Hope this is helpful.........GO FLY!!
