For the past week I came across with the problem where my Heli is not Takeing off after doing my final PID adjustments in latest MP( wHEN I MEAN TAKE OFF I MEAN IT WON'T GET OFF THE GROUND EVEN WHEN REV'ED UP AT MAX). On the work bench i test all settings with my props off and all seems well, but when i get ready to test my Heli outdoor it just doesnt want to take off. i had this problem before, and all i did was reset the APM and entered all the PIDs, but this time not even that works. I am currently using a trex 450 and trex 550. My problem started with the trex 550 and and i thought it was my Heli setup cuase of previous crashes,now that i got my new trex 450 and installed a new apm it wont take off. the trex450 is new out of box and it flys normal with out the APM, but when i install the APM it just wont take off. This problem is on both APM the trex550 and the trex 450. Any Ideas, cuase I am about to give up on the APM.
Has anyone came across this problem?
Please help.

Hi you could try to unplug the motor from the esc and and check to see if the collective servos are moving (the swash plate should move up and down with the throttle ) you still should have it strapped to a bench at this stage of testing.PID,s are probably set low for safety
