I've had three great flights with my T-Rex SE, but now the gyro doesn't seem to be working!

I followed Bob's instructions for setup. Radio is Futaba 9cap, all rudder and gyro trims set to 0, Gyro Sens in GY mode, Mix is ACT, set to switch H, up is AVC 30%, down is NOR 50%.

I power on the TX, wait 5 sec's, power on the heli, wait 5 sec's, the red LED on the heli is on solid. Flip the switch to normal and the light goes out, servo works as it normally would. Flip to HH mode and the servo moves with rudder input, but it doesn't correct when I spin the tail of the heli around.

I've watched Bob's video a hundred times when he says, "move the tail away from you and the slider should move toward you", but MINE NEVER MOVES!! I've tried just trimming it in and the tail is all over the place!! HELP!! Should I take the Gyro back? :arggg:
