My 3d xl  has an issue and I'm not sure what is wrong with it.  The tail
will only
turn left.   I can hold the control stick all the way to the right and I can
make
it stop rotating left....but it wont go right.

It was flying fine before I broke the two small connectors to the tail rotor
blades.
I've broken one before and replaced it and it was fine....when I replaced
these,
it's never been the same.

Any Ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Hi z,

I am sure that you know already that a helicopter will always go to
the left, if the main blades rotate clockwise. It seems as if the gyro
went south on you... Just check it with another gyro you may have on
hand. I am sure you have more then one heli on hand. Here are some
reviews that may interest you. http://www.rcuniverse.com/community/profile.cfm?section=blog&memid=229577

thanks for the reply, and isn't it nice that some zealot feels the
need to spam with religion using someone elses name.  Funny
really when you think of the irony.  Here is an individual on
a high horse, pontificating to those around him/her, anyone who will
read is a target.  But they forgot the message that they themselves
are preaching.

"Thou shalt not lie"  since this really spans 2 testaments, and multiple
religions, how ridiculous do they look when they lie about who they are
to get their message accross.  Oddly, the only message I see is "don't be
a liar" like this jackass.

Anyway Jeff, thanks for the info.  As it turns out, I inverted the belt
rotation after a mod rebuild.  So, lesson learned.  I guess there's a reason
for the tail rotor to "counter rotate"....lol

Thanks again,

z
