Micro Align trex 150 wont lift off

[Montytipton]

Hey everyone this is my first post here and I hope everyone is healthy and safe. For some reason my newer align trex 150(1 crash and it doesn’t work) won’t lift off. I have fully 0 pitch in my mid stick all my servos are working and I just replaced the main board and tail rotor. What’s happening? I’m not buying a new one but one thing I will try is not flying it on futaba

I don't know the 150, but if you have positive pitch and enough RPM it must lift off.

Things to check
1. You have positive pitch at full throttle about 10 degrees is plenty.
2. The rotors are turning in the correct direction.
3. The main gear is not slipping on the main shaft
4. The battery is fully charged
5. The Jesus Bolt in the head is not broken.

Let us know how you go.

Well my pitch is ok
My blades are turning clockwise
The battery is fully charges
The Jesus bolt isn’t broken
I wish I could just send mine to tony and pay him to fix it(jk)

Any chance of videoing the the attempted take off and posting it, that may help diagnose it.

Yes sure will do
When I hold it in my hand and throttle up it doesn’t even feel like it wants to take off

Hey Monty. Even though it's a 150 and it might looks like a toy to you...it's not. I wouldn't hold any Heli in your hand. Your just asking for more trouble then just lift off.
