OK, I think I have it . . . there was a missing connection buckle!  Replacing that improved the ability to go straight in the forward or reverse direction immensely!  Also, I found when replacing the missing buckle, that If I attach the buckle so that is site BEHIND the bulb on the connection posts I get the old washing machine effect.  Once the buckles move ON TO the bulb on the connection post, all is well. 

 

Thanks for your posts.

Well it could be your just not use to the control stick yet. These things are really quite sensitive. Just try a little imput in the opposite direction, just a little and see what happens. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

Not saying this is the problem,however when you engage rear tail rotor forward you will get a nose dive a bit,this is when throttle control comes in-it really is a matter of using your controls on remote-when hovering does it turn one way or the other? then you need to trim on remote-keep us posted

Hi, yes, I'm a newbeee . . . and here is my flight plight . . . out of the box, the 107 hovers like a dream . . . virtually no moving around, steady . . . simple.  However, when I push the control forward, it begins to tilt forward for a short time then veers off and begins to make a turn . . . I can't get the heli to go straight when I push the control straight forward.  Actually , backing up is the same deal . . . it goes backward all right, for a shot distance, then it begins to move in an arc. Does this sound like operator error or mechanical problems?

I checked the tail rotor assembly and it appears to be straight, undamaged, and turning on command, but . . . well, it simply does not go straight.

I am flying in a double garage with the door closed so no moving air effects.

Result being, I spend most of my flight time keeping the heli out of trouble rather than flying it in the direction(s) I want it to go which, by coincidence, will also keep it out of trouble but I con't seem to get there.

I'm thinking of buying another heli just to see if it is me or the machine.

Thanks . . . any help will be appreciated.
