Help! Having trouble with new blade Mcx2 newbie


       Remove this ad - become a site supporter!
Happy St.Pattys Day All!
After I received a brand new blade mcx2 for my birthday I cannot get it to lift off the ground. I have it paired with a dx6i, and followed a few instructions on setting the gyro(to get low rates). When I begin to throttle up the helicopter body spins counter clockwize and then usually falls over. I have tried trimming the rudder control in either direction with no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Patrick

Give it more throttle faster
You need to pop it up faster to get it off the ground so it doesnt get a chance to spin /tip over

Are both sets of blades spinning and spinning opposite to one another? The body shouldn't spin at all and should only take a bit of trimming if its working properly. If one set of blades isn't spinning look to see if the gears are meshing with the motor, sometimes they get bumped off and just need to be pressed back down to make contact.

That is right the top blade is not spining, is there any pictures available on where to "push in" the top roter? Thanks!
