Hello everyone,

I am trying to get my ZXX going. I got it all trimmed at the hobby shop I got it from. I even saw the thing fly actually, here's the prob. I have fuel in the tank, receiver, gyro, and transmitter are on. The throttle is at even stick. The glow plug is connected and the meter on my panel says its giving juice. When it use my starter with the hex adapter it just spins. The tail rotor spins pretty fast, I am holding the main rotor where the blades attach, but the engine never turns over. I even pushed the throttle all the way up a couple of times. One question though, the starter spins clockwise, Is this correct?, does it matter? Please HELP!!!!!

P.S. I found this site 5 days ago, and have already learned tons. GREAT SITE, thanks in advance!!!

Starter rotating direction

When you look down, your starter should spin the hex adapter (and hence the engine) counter-clockwise. If not, reverse the polarity of your starter and try again.
