Hi Guys! New member here. I've flown off and on for a few years and recently got back into the hobby with some of Eflites models. Can't say enough good things about them, however I am completely stumped on a problem with my father's Turbo Timber. He purchased one as well as a NX8 to learn to fly planes as he mostly flies copters.
Right out of the box binded it up in AS3X and tested the control surfaces. When I stepped back to taxi it around I noticed the wheel spring connector was incorrectly assembled and the plane was leaning to one side. I immediately knew this would mess up the AS3X, so I fixed it and rebinded. Now every flight the plane just wants to dip in one direction. If I trim it out I have no authority on that side. On the ground the AS3X tests fine, and I don't want to start subtrimming either since everything looks identical to my Turbo Timber.
To me this is clearly an issue from binding in an unstable position. I just don't know enough about AS3X to troubleshoot and not seeing too much come up in my google searches. I have rebinded several times and even made a new profile on the transmitter. Is there something I'm missing here?
Thanks guys!
Side rant: Pretty frustrated with my google searches involving Eflite/Horizon/Spektrum. Everything seems to lead back to product pages. Happy to have joined Hobby Squawk!
