Hello

Ive got a physical coaxial Lama V4 which I fly fine. Powered up FMS and put on the ThreeDee helicopter.

Just want to check something:

When I move the Elevator forward, the blades move and then stick in that position, ie they do not centre when I centre my stick. Is this what FP and CP helicopters are like or is there something wrong with my FMS?

Thanks

something wrong with either:

Transmitter - not sending "standard" PPM signals.

Interface - you don't state how you are connecting the TX to the PC

FMS - the install has become corrupted, you have not calibrated the joystick via game controllers

I loaded up the otehr Helicopter, cant remeber the name and that seems fine. Something odd with that ThreeDee then!

Thanks for the reply

FMS is HORRIBLE for trying to setup all the controls... you have to tell it which lever does which heli control and if it's - or + etc... way to complicated when switching around to different models.

Get Clearview. It's online.. free demo.. $40 for full.. and worth every penny! Transmitter will work everytime no matter what plane or heli you are flying. its just a smarter program that way.
