Heli-X 3 & Heli-X 4 right rolls sometimes stop

Post by Zen »

Greetings, Guten Tag—

I wonder if anyone else has a condition where a right roll command will suddenly stop or reverse (become a left roll), causing a crash?

This has been happening with my system since Heli-X 3, and I am now using version 4. I have a MacPro tower with Snow Leopard (10.6.8) with all software updates. My Tx is an old E-flight 6 channel FM that came with the Blade CP Pro. I have also used a 4 channel E_sky Tx that came with the V3 Lama and Honey Bee FP. This condition occurs with any transmitter that I connect to the system.

At first I thought these crashes were due to pilot error, but they are consistent enough to observe during maneuvers that are normally under full control. An axial roll during forward flight, for example, will sometimes result in half of a right roll, then a violent roll to the left.

Thanks for considering this issue,
