"Trim" is an aeronautical and nautical term that refers to adjusting a plane, helicopter, or boat to offset engine torque or other factors. Basically you are adjusting the controls so that when they are in the neutral position, the craft is flying straight. The remote for this helicopter has two trim adjustments. One for forward and reverse and one for rotation left or right. You don't actually trim the rotors or any of the control surfaces on the helicopter itself. If you adjust the trim knobs fully one way or the other and the helicopter is still not behaving properly then you can disconnect the control arms that tilt the rotors and tighten them or loosen them until you get it to operating properly.

We had that every problem and it finally crashed into a wall as a result. We were told we could have tried to trim the wing, but it was too late. In my opinion, this is not a good plane. Why would you have to trim the wing?

You can fix it by trimming (balancing) the helicopter through the remote control. Please refer to instructions manual for details.

The on/off switch on the bottom of the helicopter is so small that it's a bit tricky. Make sure that you're moving it fully into the on position. I thought something was wrong with mine when I got it, but it was because I didn't do the switch right.

Check which way the motor points. thats the easiest way. compare it to the picture.

It is a 6 axis instead of a 4axis helicopter meaning that altitude is changed by changing the pitch of the main blades rather than the speed. This means that the helo can be flown upside down. However this is a terrible 6 axis copter and you should look else ware for a stunt chopper

may just be a bad motor. these little helicopters are usually of good quality. check to see if the pinion gear that is attached to the motor is touching the other gear. may just need to be adjusted up or down

You can check that the helicopter is ready by turning it on. When it is time to charge again follow the charging directions in the manual. Try to by another helicopter with shorter charging times.

The purpose of raising the landing gear on one side is feverish effort to counteract the ground effect slip to the left on take off. It stays that way because the Gyros have placed it in that position as LEVEL. On my birds, (I have (2) 911s) I simply took a pair of scissors and clipped the tabs off. Even so, one of the still fly slightly tilted until I did a weight shift on the entire frame. (Don't do that, it takes away from flying time because of added weight.) Having said that, let me say this:(Learn the characteristics of each of your birds. If it has a tendency to slip left on take-off, give it a quick shot and release of right aileron to correct it. Do the same thing for the birds slipping away in any other direction. The gyros will take over from that point and you will be able to enjoy your flights as I do now. ALL Rotary Winged Aircraft with a tail rotor produces thrust to the left on take off because of the countering forces between the main rotor that want the aircraft to spin left and the tail rotor that says, Oh no you don't!!

It's fixed, don't know why, but does not work as advertised! The heli is great though and because the lift is on a non springed joystick it's better, if it did switch modes then it would use the other side as lift. Which can cause a crash since its spring loaded, I'm assuming they have other controllers that do that and generic adaptation caused the misprinting. Good luck! And don't forget to switch the h-l setting and then also you can change the servo arm to the farthest position and the copter can fly much faster

Did you try the actual physical adjustments on it, the controler adjustements don't seem to be able to compensate for it being put together out of alignment.

On my helicopters, there is a plug port on the left side of the helicopter . Port was prewired to board.

did you align it straight? tilting works but it must be straight. I also had a factory tow package and just had to plug it all in. if you had to add wires,(other than a extension) you might look there.

Might be a defect but mine turned out ok. The tail goes to the right causing to spin so I had hovering and adjust trim the transmitter. Turned out to be stable now. If yours tilt it shouldn't do that cause there's no way to adjust it via transmitter.

First, make sure to NOT move the heli when you turn it on and connect to the Transmitter. The only option you have is to use the Transmitter trim switch to compensate.

Sorry , I can't help you . I returned both helicopters because they were defective .

The trim adjustments on controller for pitch and yaw must be adjusted accordingly to keep helicopter level try to adjust as best you can

you do not level the swashplate on fixed pitch heli's like the v912, they need to be pitched to the right to make up for the torque from the blades, you only need to do that on collective pitch, set it back the way it was from the factory and enjoy!

it is quite possible it is defective(it happens) if you 1 -turn on transmitter FIRST then set heli on a FLAT surface. turn on heli and wait about 3 sec. the built in gyro will engage . NOT doing this will cause all sorts of problems. check the balance everything should be factory balanced.also look at r/c flight school.com lots of info there.GOOD LUCK.
