Default Piccolo Torque

Need some help. Even with the gain set on full, my Piccolo still rotates to the left and requires full trim and some stick to correct. Any ideas?

That is TOO much gain, TOO much tail motor. Cut back a little. If it spins clockwise (Left) then that is the tail working, if it spins counter clockwise, then that is the tail not working enough.

Flying Weasel has a point. Use clockwise and counter-clockwise (anti-clockwise?) to describ the dirrection of rotation.
Also, describe your configuration. Do you have a Fun Piccolo? With a piccoboard? What transmitter?
And, here are a [link=http://www.ikarus-modellbau.de/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=138982&page=0&view=collap sed&sb=5&o=&fpart=1]few[/link] - [link=http://www.pgoelz.com/piccolo1.html]good[/link] - [link=http://www.dream-models.com/h/flying-index.html]links[/link] that should help get you going.

Thanks guys,

The model is indeed rotating clockwise (to the left as I described it). I have a Fun Picco with piccoboard and a Sanwa RD6000 radio setup.

I'll also try the links out - thanks Vince.

Thanks too, Flying Weasle
