New to quads

[Sprinkler Fitter]

Hello, new guy here, 55 years old, I raced off road rc 30 years ago, got back into rc racing 5 years ago racing indoor dirt oval. Bought a Blade helicopter a few years ago for some indoor flying.

Been wanting a quad for awhile now, just got a Force1 U45W Blue Jay yesterday. I ran one battery in it last night and I could get up in the air and fly around slow. I get home from work today and try to fly again but as soon as I lift off the ground it seems to have a mind of its own and just starts lifting and going sideways until I pull down on sticks to shut it off.

Any suggestions?

Read pages 10 and 11 to calibrate.

Read your manual, it will explain the process to "calibrate" your gyro. It's usually just a matter of pushing both sticks down and to the right until you get rapid flashing LEDs. When they go solid, you should be good to go.

I'll try again after work today. I thought I did calibrate, maybe I missed a step.

Thats what I was going to tell you Sprinkler, calibrate it and if it still going sideways than trim it(look in your manual and it should tell you how).
