Default Blade MCX

I have a blade MCX which is a great flyer, I haven't flown it for about 3 weeks, today when I flw it it turns to the left, I try to trim it on the controler it does very little to correct even with the trim set all the way. Is there nay adjustments on the helicopter for this problem which just started. It is not a drifting problem, its a turning problem. Thanks for your assistance.

Not familiar with the MCX but I fly the other E-Flite helis. Two things come to mind, looks like one of your motors is going beddie-bye. Second, check the battery make sure it's fully charged.

I just bought a MCX2 and I noticed it drifts to the right-I'm not even flying yet. I tried adjusting the aileron but it doesn't seem to do anything. nt thoughts?

Was this a new or used heli? Is the swashplate relatively level when you fly it? The swashplate should be level then you may need to trim it out when you start flying. When you move the right stick on the radio, do both sevos move up and down?

I have a MCX2. I assuming you adjusted the transmitter controls. It should just lift straight up while flying inside. My issue is getting the heli to turn on. Any ideas why sometimes I have move controls, unplug battery & replug in and move controls again & again. I wish it would just turn on once the tranmitter & battery was then connected.

Most heli from my understanding when you first lift, they want to go to the right. Once you have it in the air does it hover ok? Check to make sure you can hover after you get it in the air and that it is stable before you start changing things. Also checking that the swashplate is level is a good idea. There are other controls under the canopy (but I would make that my last choice) If you have a local hobby shop take to them.
