Back in the air!
That’s right, I got it figured out - thanks to the fine people on the Heliguy forums!
Read the adventure HERE and HERE…
So here’s what I learned…
If you want to upgrade your servos with Hitec (hs50, at least) servos, and you have already upgraded to a brushless motor, YOU WILL NEED A PROGRAMMABLE Tx/Rx.
What I did to solve the problem, was to reinstall my original stock Esky servos for the cyclic. Problem solved for now - I’ll reinstall the Hitecs when I can afford to buy a nice programmable Tx/Rx.
