Gohbee Aviation Stinger 30-90 > stinger 50?

When I do a loop the helicopter goes to the left. I have to give it right aileron to make it loop straight. Can anyone tell me what to check? It did not do this before it was crashed. It seems to fly fine otherwise.

Might want to start by checking the phasing ring to make sure it's correct. There is a half decent diagram here http://www.gohbee.com/Merchant2/support.html

Hope it helps.

I'm sure someone can provide a much better explanation than I can. But as well as I understand it the position of the ring is going to time where in the blades rotation cyclic pitch will be added to collective. So if it's off a bit you will find aileron mixed with elevator and so on. If that makes any sense to ya.

Yup, Phase angle will do that.
I have found that the ideal angle varies depending on which blades and paddles you have.
My setting usually ends up somewhere in between the setting shown in the above link and lined up straight with the boom.

Heavy blades and/or paddles will need the input a little more advanced than lighter ones, to give the heavy stuff more time to react.

Does this also apply to the hawk sport or is this only for stingers?

Phase angle is not adjustable on a Hawk.

Phase angle applies to all helies.
Not all helies have an adjustable phase angle.

If needed you can make the same adjustments electronically in your TX by using P-mixes.

Would that be an elevator to aileron mix? Thanks for the information.

yes
You would do 2 mixes, one Elevator to Aileron and one Aileron to Elevator.

You may only be noticing it in your loops now, but it would have the same effect in rolls of there being a little elevator.
So set both mixes to the same value. It will be a small amount of mix maybe 5% or less.
