Check to see if it's plugged in properly and all the way. If it is, does it make noise? The gear train may be stripped. If it makes no noise then the servo is toast and you'll have to replace it. I suggest replacing all the cyclic servos with Hitec HS-65MGs, you won't have to replace them again. There's a slim chance that the receiver has problems, but I would try a new servo first.

This thread should really be in the "mini helis" forum, not in the 3D forum. There is also a thread there specifically on your heli.

HS65MGs all the way around is still the standard servo upgrade for the b400.

I had the same prob with my TX, check you swash settings,,,

Aileron and Elevator should be the same (more or less)

Is the servo reacting to Pitch?

If not, then replace servo.....

Swap servo from rear to front, if problem persists, its a setting, if not, then servo is knackered.

My dx6i acts up from time to time, It will erase program settings sometimes or the timer changes, anyways just check you're settings make sure they are like the book says. I had to replace one bad servo on my tail that never wanted to center properly right out of the box.
