Need help with my Esky Lama v4 - Won't rise!

[Ptashark]

Hey all, I'm new!

I bought myself a Lama Esky V4 a while back and I was getting the hang of the thing, when disaster struck.

A week ago, my helicopter refused to rise more than 10cm off the ground. Both rotors start off at the same time, everything looks ok, but it refuses to rise?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Welcome aboard the best electric flight site there is!

I'm not familiar with that helicopter in particular, but my first guess would be the battery. Have you been 'good' to your batterries, or have you over-taxed them? I guess they are lipo? Even one instance of draining them too far can ruin them.

I guess you've checked the motors and rotors for binding, like hair getting wrapped around the shafts or anything?

I've never drained the battery, and the rotors are rotating fine. I'll check the battery with a multimeter though, but i think it should be fine.
