I need a little help from you. I made a video of my problem.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpMt-BQYLmE
Description of the problem: When I make inputs on aileron and elevator do while the engine is off, the swashplate moves back into neutral. If the engine is running then it keeps its status and does not return to neutral. Is this normal?
I could find no vibrations.
Someone an idea, or is that correct?

Hello,

this is very normal behavior of our FBL system.
It is working exactly as it should.

Behavior in "the flight" and on the ground is different.

Hi,
but how does the FBL detect the motor is running, because that makes a difference.

It is determined by vibrations which are always present on any model with rotating parts.

Don't be afraid, it will work fine.

Hello,
This video is a difference in behavior. The swash plate returns to its original position during the motor is running. Is there something wrong with the FBL?

This is normal if vibrations without blades are very low so it is recognized as if your model is not in the air.
With blades there should be higher vibrations so then the swashplate will behave little bit differently.
