I have a problem with this baby. I have it new last week right out the box.
After seting everything on the radio like it's writen in the guide and charged the battery.
When i set the radio on and after that the CP, it blings like it should do.
But when i pull the trottle up the rotors starts to turn only when i be at 50% at the trottle. After pul it to 100%, the heli wont lift, the rotors get less power and stop. I can repeat this every time but nothing changes.
Can anybody help me with this problem?

Hmm.... My first thought it ESC programming. I don't know how to reprogram the stock ESC. My Belt CP didn't do anything until about mid stick too, but mine would fly.
This could be dangerous to try without the proper precautions - but could the throttle switch on the transmitter be reversed? If you are going to try this, I'd take the head assembly off OR loosen the motor screws and back it away from the main gear.

If it is the stock Esky ESC on it it could be faulty!! They usually need to be upgraded to avoid having any future problems.
You may want to check to see if your battery is charged and balanced correctly and that the pitch on your main blades and paddles are correct too.

get a new ESC, the stock 25A ESC's are funny about not starting till half throttle, get at least a 30A but most go for a 40A, it'll make a LOT of difference in how it spools up, the 3800 brushless motor has decent power with a good ESC

Thanks for the reply's.
Don't hit me guys, but with another Lipo it worked better and lifts up now
I will replace the ESC in the near future indeed.
Thanks, Danny.

The tail is starting to spin at higher RPM? Maybe the belt is not tight enough

I would think your LHS would have something that would work.
