| I flew the LAMA 2 for the first time, great beginner heli. I fly a blade/HB CP2 and appreciate the stability of the LAMA out of the box. This is a great indoor hover machine, lets you get the feel of flying before moving up to something more responsive.
After a few flights, and a few rough landings (I got overly enthusiastic!) the helicopter began to spin rapidly to the left. The top blades were not spinning fast enough to balance the bottom ones. I tried the proportional on the 4-in-1 but it was not enough to correct the problem. I then tried fixing the pitch of the blades, no luck at all. In the end the problem was simple - the two screws clamping the top blade shaft to the gear (look underneath the heli) had backed off - tightened them down and all is well.
Just thought I'd share that in case someone else has the same problem and is looking things to try  |
