Received DH 9101 yesterday and after charging I tried a test flight.It hovers with alittle drift,will turn left and right but does not go forward or backward..It appears not to have any damage.
Need some ideas as to what the trouble might be.
Thanks Dennis

Probably a daft question, but are you sure the tail rotor turns when you select forward or reverse flight? Is the motor turning, if so is the rotor secure on the shaft? Are the gears meshing ok and are secure on their shafts?
If the motor is not turning, best to check the wiring is intact. As its a new heli, if it is a faulty motor then its probably best to request an exchange. HTH.

I see my fingers got ahead of my brain on the spelling of forward.....
the rear rotor turns slowly..everything else looks ok

Assuming the rotor isn't slipping on the shaft, the most likely issue is a problem with the tail motor. Either the motor is no good or they may be a problem with the pcb supplying the correct voltage/amperage. Either way, I'd be contacting whoever I bought it from.
These 3ch helis are pretty simple machines, forward and reveres momentum is only generated by tilting the heli in the appropriate direction so if the tail motor is weak or getting a weak signal then it will not tilt the machine and you won't get the desired momentum going.
Keep in mind this is an internet diagnosis so I could be dead right or I could dead wrong. Too tough to say for sure over a keyboard...

What was the outcome of this? I still have these copters, I have to admit they have become display pieces... www.killbuckets.com/ |
