  • Flywing H2 tail problem

    Hello
    Have been flying Trex450 for long time
    So I saw Flying FW450 V3 and I give a try and I love it !!
    So I decided to convert my reliable Trex450 to new Flywing H2 controller
    My spec:
    Trex450 DFC
    Castle creation edge 50 Phoenix
    Bavarian Demon fly controller
    TYG 3066 HV servos
    TYG 616 HV tail servo

    I change the controller e setup everything as demo videos and it come without a problem
    I calibrated the compass/GPS in a empty baseball field without a problem
    I went to a maiden fly, the problem starts
    The helicopter got a strong satellite signal
    GPS 1 = 25 satellites
    GPS2 = 16 satellites
    Everything ok
    I unlocked and started power up the helicopter went in a hover and suddenly lost tail and spin counter clockwise violently
    Almost crash but, as experienced I was hover Lower to the ground.
    Since then, I disassembled the helicopter 3 times all mechanical is perfect but this problem continue happen
    Never had this problem with Bavarian demon or my FW450V3
    Now is almost a month and I can fix this problem
    This why I’m contacting you
    I can do anything anymore mechanically and the settings from the program is flawless
    Do I have a bad unit?
    Can someone tell me what it is causing it?

    Anyhelp
    is
    welcome

    The Flywing H2 controller is designed for an electric tail rotor where the speed of the tail motor changes to control the heli's yaw. If I'm not mistaken, your TREX uses pitch on the tail rotor to control yaw and control the tail and can't regulate a servo that does the tail pitch. You'll need to find another kind of GPS controller that can regulate a tail rotor servo. Most of today's GPS Helicopters uses a similar type of controller and can't deal with tail rotors that work on pitch.
    Someone else tried this a while back and posted it here. He had the same issue. Perhaps you could find that thread and ask him what he ended up doing and how he fixed this problem.
