VENTURE 50 3D TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

PROBLEM

CAUSE

CURE

Helicopter vibrates excessively

a. Rotor blades out of balance

Re-balance rotor blades

b. Flybar/paddles not centered

Re-center flybar on rotor head

c. Engine running roughly

Re-adjust engine lean/rich settings

d. Excessive clutch run out

Re-align clutch assembly

Engine runs inconsistent

a. Incorrect fuel mixture

Re-adjust engine settings

b. Fuel line problem

Check/replace lines (including

inside the tank)

c. Glow plug damaged

Replace glow plug

Main rotor blades do not track

a. Blade pitch not equal

Re-set blade pitch w/ gauge and retest

b. Blades warped or twisted

Check and replace as needed

Model "wobbles" in hover

a. Rotor rpm too low

Increase throttle at hover or
decrease pitch

Clutch grabs when at idle

a. Engine rpm too high

Reduce trim value/engine rpm

b. Engine/clutch mis-aligned

Re-align and retest

Model will not lift off the ground

a. Engine too rich

Lean needle valve settings

b. Blade pitch incorrect

Re-check with pitch gauge

c. Throttle curve incorrect

Re-check throttle curve settings

Model rotates uncontrollably

a. Gyro direction reversed

Re-check gyro direction and retry

b. Tail servo reversed

Re-check servo direction and retry

c. Gyro gain too low

Increase gyro gain and retry

d. Main rotor rpm too low

Increase throttle or decrease pitch

Model constantly drifts in same direction

a. Linkage out of adjustment

Re-check linkages per manual

b. Servo centering not correct

Re-check servo neutral and reset

c. Trim levers not centered

Check TX trim lever position
