Why my HB FP tail tend to drop during flight? The heli balance is ok. Is that normal on HB FP? I try to move the battery forward, so it a bit nose heavy. But during flight the tail still try to drop.
If you ever fly Finch on Real Flight Simulator, it's the same condition.

It is normal for HBFP to nose up when you pull back on the stick to come out of forward flight. That is normal for a fixed pitch heli.

Just a noob here but I would check the swash plate (mine broke in the bend, forward arm) or it is possible that it is coming apart. . Just a thought I was trying to hover and I flew it realy fast and hard into the dog's runner cable, that was fun to watch as it hit, hung and then droped like a rock. Still the only thing it broke was the swash plate.

Everything is ok, no broken part. But during a forward flight I feel that the tail is dropping, without I pull back the stick.
Tomorrow I will try to make it really nose heavy, and see what happen.
