    Hi all,

    I got this remote controlled helicopter but as you can see from the pic, it isn't flying level:/

    Is that bar on top supposed to be slanted like that? All the trim settings are neutral.

    Tut god damn it, the pic came out upside up lol, just turn your computer around;)

    The balance bar should be level when the heli is at level flight,did you check the linkages to see if their stuck?

    Actuall, some flybars are slanted... to counter act the rotation of the blades.
    you need to adjust ur trims so it will fly level... setting trims at level and hoping it will fly level is not to way to trim a heli, you need to trim the heli in flight, i.e. if its pulling towards the right add a little right trim until its stops. The end result are the trims may not be neutral but the heli is flying level....
