I have a Raptor Titan with 401 and 9254on the tail. The tail holds great, it is just when I turn the nose to the right the tail jumps from side to side. It does not do this when turning left. I have checked the links and everything is smooth. The only thing I can find is there is a little slack in the plastic blade grips on the tail. But why to the right and not the left? Any ideas?

Just a stab but something to check.... but maybe look at your oneway on the main gear to see if is slipping just a bit. Since turning the tail one way will require more torque and tail input to stop its motion if there is a little bit of give in the oneway it may cause a wag.... like I said just grasping... :^)

I thought if the gain was too high it would wag all the time. Not just when I turn to the right. Also I check the oneway bearing by holding the gear and tring to turn the head. Everything seems allright. Is this the correct way to check it?

Also I forgot, I have just upgraded the tail gear to the Gohbee gear that gives you 5.0.1 gearing. And I still have the plastic blade gripes. could this be the problem
