I never said " to turn one way it slows the top set
> down and to turn the other the bottom set slows down"......... I am told
by the expert at my local hobby store that only one set of blades changes
speed. Slows down and speeds up. That makes sense as all CX2's yaw one
way
faster than the other.
The CX2's do drop, if you rotate (yaw) for couple secs it loses altitude
What the OP describes is the same as every CX2 I've seen (a few) so I was
just telling him there is nothing wrong with it (he rec'd advice here to
play with the 4 in 1 propo trimpot because it yaws one way faster than the
other, and I doubt that is necessary, it is normal).
