Exclamation :d Awsome

Well here is the story.....

Im a college sophomore and for last christmas my parents bought me a Honey Bee King by Esky. I had a horrible time trying to get it set up and all the kinks worked out. For a beginner this is not something I recomend!!! I took my heli to an experienced heli pro and he helped me out. Turns out one of the servos was bad and it was shorting out the speed controller and making my battery life deteriorate fast. I got it all fixed cause it was a manfactures defect and I finally got her to where she will fly !!!

Now that she is set up(i think) I bout a smaller Lama 2 Co-axial heli to practice. I am pretty good at the lil heli and when it comes to the Honey Bee King Im obviously a tid bit more scared. I have gotten her powered up enough to definately get her well airborne. My problem is that when i power up the nose goes left and the heli raises up and tilts to the right. So now I try to compensate for the heli tilting, I cant get control of the thing. At the top of my Controller are 2 knobs a HOV.PIT & PIT.TRIM. I believe that the Pit.Trim is for the adjustment of the tail rotor, but there is no seperate motor for the tail rotor, so will it even help to adjust it? I cant figure out what the HOV.PIT knob is exactly for and my manual doesnt really help that much either.

So here i am asking if someon can help me out and let me know some info so i can be hooked into buying the reallu big helis cause that is my "dream" and to get my heli pilot liscence to fly the real thing!!!

Thank you for taking your time to help me out in advance!!!

Re: :d Awsome

I am not familar with your TX but in general you can use your TX to trim it out or adjust the End Point with your TX program or your can adjust you swashplate to make sure it is level by adjusting the servo pushrods that connected to the swashplate. The tail rudder is contoled by the tail servo via the gyro. Not sure if I am making sense to. if not check here in case you can help info http://www.helitown.com/ESkyHoneyBeeKing.htm
