I am relatively new to RC Heli's, so please bear with me. The guy that setup my 500, after the build, is no longer available and I have no one near me that knows about heli's. The guys at my local hobby shop are in to cars/trucks, trains, or planes. It's frustrating. Ok, on to my problem...
My nephew, 12 years old, was flying on my Phoenix Sim last week, using my DX6i....and he thought it would be fun to change some of my settings on my DX6i. He changed my Throttle Curve and Pitch Curve and I don't remember what I had them set at. I tried to fly my 500 yesterday and it won't get off the ground until nearly 75% stick. I was furious.
My Throttle Curve is now: 0,25,50,75,100
My Pitch Curve is now: 45,47.5,50,75,100
I have no idea where he got these numbers from. Before he changed the settings, my 500 was very light on the skids at 50% throttle. Would anyone have any suggestions on what to try adjusting? I realize that it's very hard to suggest anything without actually being present and witnessing what the heli is doing, but I really need some help here.
Thanks much!
PS...my nephew will just have to stick with his Nintendo DS...no more touching my DX6i.
