Hi,

Since last week i have Reflex XTR.
It took my quit some time to get it communicating with my transmitter.
Now it does but i still have the following problem with controling the
tailrotor from the Heli models.

Only and only the Centuri heli models react to my stick movements, all
the other models don't react. So at the moment i can only exercise
heliflying with the Centuri scale models and not with my Raptor model.

It can't be the transmitter because all the channels are recognized
and when using fixed wing models the ruder is working perfect and as
explained the Centuri models work fine.

Does anybody recognize this problem and has a solution for me?

I searched the net but couldn't find anything and the
supportdepartment from reflex in Germany doesn't respond to my
e-mails.

Regards,

Claus

Claus,

There is a "bug" where when the sim starts, the tail rotor already hits the
ground and thefore doesn't spin.

Try starting the sim at half throttle, the tail rotor will spin and
everything should work fine. Sounds like maybe you have some negative main
rotor pitch and are loading down the heli so the tail rotor touches the
ground more easily.

Hope this helps.
