Sticky collective pitch, don't buy low cost helicopters

One reason to spend money on a good heli instead of buying a cheep one and fixing it.
When I increase my throttle my pitch only goes up a little bit but as soon as I give it sum cyclic input the collective pitch dramatically increases. When I stop the blades and spin them up again the same thing happens. It only seams to hold the maximum pitch settings while the blades are spinning, on the video it's easier to hear it then it is to see it. I have completely removed the shaft and it doesn't seam bent. My batteries are good. My servos still seam good but I don't know.

Hey Taiostflyer you should get a Walkera v120d02, or a m120d01. the m120d01 is like the v120d02 just carbon fiber. or Maybee a Walkera tri-blade. I just want someone reasonable to try out a walkera flybarless heli to see how it compares to the mCP X.

@dittsboylogan i would love to do the comparison if i can get my hands on them, i tried out a T28 micro Trojan recently and loved it, i should have a review coming soon.

@taoistflyer Once I get some extra allownace money, or chores I've made the decision to get the Parksone Micro T-28 Trojan. It'll be my first 4ch. plane. I've had 4/6ch. helicopters but don't know how well I'd do.

[taoistflyer]

@dittsboylogan you'll love it, the servos are very responsive and you can loop and roll really easily, it is very stable and it is quick to respond.

I had a lot of fun flying it, and it even has a steerable nose gear.

Great video for us newbies just learning about rc helis! NOT! Did not even know what the video was trying to show except for the title. Maybe next time try talking and pointing out exactly what we're supposed to be seeing or not seeing! FAIL!

@TKDMario08 i posted this video 4 years ago, it was part of a discussion forum on rcgroups and rcuniverse and it made more sense in the context of those forums. their is however a simple description of what the video is supposed to be showing in the video description.

If your just getting in to the hobby you should subscribe and check out my reviews, i regularly review some of the latest greatest consumer RC aircraft out their, i just did one on the worlds smallest rc heli.
