First ground Run

[Navi]

Hi all,

Just got my HB CP2 and when for the first ground run but.... when I connect the battery to the gyro, the light keep blinking red and never turn green.

Need expert advise what went wrong? Got one time it turn green after 30 sec but there is no servo movement when I move the stick?

Check if your trottle stick is all the way down before you plug in the battery to the 4in1 unit.

Yes. all setting correct.

Any other possible reason so that I can try out? I am getting another Tx from my friend to try tonight.

check the crystals... the crystals might be loose or wrong frequncy.

The Throttle stick and the Trottle trim must be set to min position (expecially the throttle trim)

Did you adjust the servo reverse switch? especially for Throttle?

Check your idle up switch, I think it's the left flip switch. It must be in normal mode.....

Hi guys,

Thanks for all the advise.... Just did a second ground run at my friend's void deck just now. Problem resolved but do not know what happen !!!

Here is what I did:

1] Transfer the crystal from the TX to another TX (Century) .

2] Able to get the Green light and start the rotor/servo with the TX (Century).

3] Use the CP2 TX on another HB FP and the CP2 TX able to communicate with the HB FP.

4] Swap back TX and crystal and try ...and everything back on track for ground run.

I am not a heli flyer, and in fact, I've not flown anything for years, but I would suggest that you did more testing/checking to ensure that all is OK before you take your heli to the air... if the 'glitch' recurrs while you are flying, the end results can be quite bad, not forgetting that it can be very dangerous.

Just my 2 cents worth.
