I'm having a problem with my Rappy when I do stationary flips. I doesn't track straight and keeps going to the left when I flip. It is trimmed out in hover and tracks straight in FFF. Any ideas. I'm sure that it's something simple. Should I put some mixing in or do I have some other problem.

Thanks,
Shawn

try stiffening the tension on the cyclic stick in the roll axis, ya might be inputing a touch of roll unknowingly, then start adding mix, if ya still need it

I'll try that. The tension on my sticks are pretty loose.

If you're doing the flips with the heli perfectly level, the it will go to the left due to t/r thrust, that's why your heli leans a little to the right while hovering. For a stationary flip to have ne translation, you have to apply a little right cyclic during the maneuver.
