My s032 dont seem to hover very well and back and forward dont work very well

Trimming is an adjustment used to get the helicopter to hover in place when you want it to hover in place (assuming no wind), not to adjust the gain (how fast it moves compared to control movement). If you don't have forward/back movement of the helicopter, there's a defect in there somewhere. If it's still under warranty, get it exchanged.

Sadly, Bob is incorrect here. In a coaxial helicopter, the main rotors spin in opposite directions, equalizing the centrifugal force and allowing the craft to hover without spinning, fine-tuned by the adjustment of the trim control. The counter-rotating main blades and internal gyroscopes provide a stable hover, while the tail rotor serves only to push the rear of the chopper up or down, providing the forward/backward thrust. If you are not moving the right joystick, you tail rotor should be stationary, or perhaps moving lazily from the wash of the main rotors. Sounds like a charging issue. What type of charger are you using? Also, Li/Po batteries are not meant to be fully discharged. Fully draining a Li/Po too many times, ESPECIALLY when they are new, will ruin them. Luckily the batteries on an 032 are easily replaceable. Available on Amazon and many other online retailers, and replaced in about 1 minute with only a small screwdriver. With a new Li/Po, charge them FULLY with the correct charger, and always stop the flight as soon as you are having to give it full power to maintain altitude. Also CRUCIAL is you MUST MUST MUST let the battery rest and cool for after a flight, wait a good 10 minutes BEFORE you connect the heli to the charger, and another 10 minute cool down after charging before you fly.

Could possibly be weak remote batteries?
Also, the s032 has an incremental throttle (you should feel very light "clicks" when moving left joystick {throttle} up or down) that can sometimes make steady hovering a challenge. Syma helicopters are fairly durable, but crashes can make them kind of shaky. Be sure to quickly throttle down fully when you are about to have any kind of blade strike or crash. If you crashed outdoors, check to make sure no blades of grass or other foreign items are in near the gears, and check the shaft for anything wrapped around it that might be slowing one or both main rotors. (even a stray long hair can muck things up) Is it exhibiting any other symptoms?
Still getting similar flight time?

Hope this helps, let me know.

This has happened to two of mine, fairly common problem if you keep hitting things with your back rotor.
Solution 1: Replace the tail assembly
Solution 2: Remove the canopy and put a small weight in the nose which will serve to drag your heli forward. No backward flight but it works better than a heli that just hovers.

Make sure that when you turn it on, you place it on a stable and LEVEL surface until gyroscopes sync up and internal red light (not red/blue flasher in nose) stops blinking. This sets level heading for helicopter. If gyroscopes sync when craft is not level it will be trying to correct and will move forward or backward. If helicopter is level and blinking red light inside stops blinking after powering on and it still moves and wont hover. Then you have a defective board and I would return it to retailer and ask for replacement.

Make sure you're charging fully, until the light on the charger doesn't get ANY brighter when you unplug the helicopter. Also, battery must be allowed to cool 10 minutes after flying AND another 10 minutes after charging.
Most crucial is that you must never fully discharge battery. Fully draining a Li/Po even once (especially when it's new) can cripple or ruin your battery. As soon as you are unable to maintain altitude, land copter and power it off. Also, there is a button on the remote, labelled "tail motor speed switch" located near the trim control. With it in the "off" or up position the tail motor is much slower allowing for more precise control. When button is pushed to the down or "on" position, tail motor moves faster giving more tilt, and thereby much more forward/reverse 'thrust'. Verify that tail rotor is moving when right joystick is actuated (and that it reverses when right stick is pulled in opposite direction) and that it isn't loose on it's shaft... this can be tested by verifying tail rotor spin in one direction then reversing joystick... tail rotor should instantly start spinning in the other direction with NO hesitation, if it slows and then starts spinning in other direction or anything like that then it's loose. Turn helicopter upside down then VERY CAREFULLY apply a small drop of super glue where the shaft meets the tail rotor, be very cautious to not get any glue near where the shaft comes out of the motor, and do not turn right side up until glue is fully dry.

If you mean it is spinning then: Adjust the trim so that you can hover and maintain stability at ALL altitudes and climb rates then i think you mean that once you push some forward on it will now spin. DONT WORRY or HOLD BACK. The craft will now spin but hopefully it will stop and begin moving forward you can now adjust its spin by using the right control stick (or a little trim). After practice it should beome easy.
Also Drafts can effect the craft quite violently so check your area for open doors etc...
hope this helps

check for minute hairs or debri trapped in roto shaft also check for week battery the stock lipo battery are not very reliable and can be replaced with a solder iron most hobbie store have them in stock The lipo battery is ussually the first thing to fail Good luck James...

1) Ensure you're fully charging. Indicator light on charging unit should NOT get brighter at all when you unplug the helicopter. If it does, then plug helicopter back into charger until light stays the same when you unplug. Note: If you're charging with a usb charger and are using a laptop or the front side data port on your desktop, these may take several hours to fully charge as they are usb 2.0 and do not carry the full 5 volt dc charge. Use powered usb (3.0) on back of desktop, or get a usb/ac adapter. Normal charge time approximately 1 hour. Go by the light, though.
2) Don't run them dead. As soon as you can no longer maintain altitude, land and turn off helicopter. Fully discharging a Li/Po battery (particularly when it's new) will cripple it's ability to hold a charge, and can ruin them.

I just purchased one too and flew it for about 30minutes then the light went off, I put new batteries in and the light still won't come on. please help me :(
