hi my name is randy i have the novos 125 cp and when i fly it it just spins to the left how to fix this please let me know thank you

[2BrothersHobby]

@TheRandyrog - Randy, sounds like either your rudder trim is adjusted heavily to the left OR your tail rotor servo isn't functioning OR your tail gyro needs adjustment. Since it is spinning counter-clockwise, this is opposite of the main rotor torque, so it could be any of these conditions. I'd start by verifying the tail rotor servo is working by moving the the left gimbal both directions and verifying the tail rotor pitch is changing. If so, check your trim 2nd, and gyro 3rd.

What's the difference between this and some of the Walkera helis? They look quite similar...

[2BrothersHobby]

@MonoPedB - You are correct. Walkera makes the helicopters for Heli-Max. Walkera makes helis for some other manufacturers as well, under different brand names. Each OEM manufacturer that Walkera supplies their helicopters to (like Heli-Max) has some of their own specifications, making each model a little unique. The Heli-Max units come with a very strict parts stocking and availability requirement here in the U.S., so hobbyists aren't without replacement parts and support.

hi i have this novos 125 cp i have tried to set it up but i set it up so when you add throttle up with the stick it just wont go up in the air into you turn on the f mode what can i do pleases help me

[carr869]

Just spun it up to test it and tail rotor parts went flying, and a main rotor tip broke off. The tail rotor wasn't attached from the factory and flew off but I found all the parts. I fault for not doing a good preflight. Never trust a factory. Things happen. This time a screw wasn't tight and it cost me a set of main rotors.

Wel I just bought one of these helicopters. Your right it does look cool. Haven't been able to fly it yet because the weather is real yucky here today. Thats ok though it will give me time to study up on it. Watch some more youtube videos. Read the hand book. Thank you for the video review and insight into the heli. (Tom)
