hey guys just wondering why one of my servos is sticking. i finished setting up my hbk2 for the first time but after it all when i test to see if i have good servo control one or more of the servos seems to stick and makes a stressed wining like sound? then when i rotate the sticks it seems to unstick and it stops

what am i doing wrong... I'm never gonna get this bird to fly

Ok back up a bit. Why are you setting up the heli? Did you crash it? Or is it new? Either way it sounds like you have a bad servo. The stock servos on $150 helis are always super cheap and usually very fragile.

buy some HTX900 servo's from Hobby City, they're like $4.00 each and work great. I just buy whole bunch of them. When they break I just put new one in. They Center good and they're FAST!

sometimes a stripped gear can cause a "bump" in the servo movemement. If you disconnect the ball link from the servo and move it back and forth and fee/hear a click, it's probably a stripped gear in a servo. This can sometimes happen in shippment to you depending on how they are packed. I've even had it happing just by transporting a heli. And of course, it happens ALOT when crashing.

having a servo studder, buzz then move or bump can be stripped gears. Only real way to tell for sure is to disconnect it's ball link and try it. Pull the cover off and you'll know for sure.
