Re: Help Please!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi there,

It depends on how much forward you are meaning here. If it races forward, then the swashplate probably isnt level or the heli is too nose heavy. If it goes forward slowly, then you need to pull the cyclic stick back slightly to counter the forward motion. Helis wont just lift off the ground and wait on you. They NEVER sit still and you need to be flying it all the time.

If you need more detailed help, like what the swashplate is, post back and we'll try to help.

Good luck... Azzy

PS. D.R. is a nice place, I was there on vacation about 6 weeks ago

Thrust from the tail rotor will always move the heli to the left.

Newton's 3rd law of motion: For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

As the main rotor spins clockwise, the body of the heli wants to spin counter-clockwise. The tail rotor is pushing to the left to counteract this. So the whole aircraft tends to want to move to the left.
