DX6 acting strange
Posted: 08 Aug 2018 12:02
Hello,
So I a new to helis and want to try out sim for more or less the first time.
I tried installing Heli-X 7.0 but for some trange reason the software just crashes on startup, the cmd window opens and boots the main window, but as soon as it opens it closes back down again. I tried downloading the 4.2 version instead, and this one boots and looks ok so perhaps my graphics processor is not up for the job (woking on an old work laptop).
All seems good an i can bind to the sim via the spektrum wireless dongle. I can do the controller config with all sticks and switches working in the controller config area.
But when i load the airport and the heli (Logo600) and try to take off in normal mode it starts acting weird. the throttle spools up until it gets to center stick, then once i get above it cuts the throttle again. So once collective starts picking up the throttle dies. I can force the heli off the ground if i use idle up 1 and then punch the left stick to full collective - but even then the throttle dies once it goes above center stick.
I am using 5 channel mode and ignoring thrust/pitch curves and ignoring dual rates/expo.
I hope you are able to help.
