That's coaxial Helio right? You need adjust trim so both motors are spinning the same speed. My TX had a separate knob to do just that not sure about your dx6.

should be some way to setup a trim dial on that DX6 doesn't have dial on the right and left side? The tail rotor is either spinning to fast or to slow. You have to have it adjusted just right because it has to speed up and slow as you you increase the boost because it has to counter act the the increased torque of the main rotor. You have to be able to hookup the TX to your computer and assign one of the dials to do the trim. once you figure that out get the helio off teh ground 16-18 inches off the ground then adjust with the dial. At that height ground affect shouldn't affect the helio so you can get the trim setup
