Not really sure why, but this happens at the top of split S, when the heli inverts the tail swings one direction. Almost lost it, it sent me in a corkscrew about 3 times today. I kept cool, but it really raised the hair on my back. Any ideas to cure the problem?
Mx400 Pro
2580 helimax motor
25amp helimax esc
stock all wood blades
gy401 gyro
hs81 on the tail

Thats a good gyro so thats not it. Try a good servo like a 9650 on the tail. should really help keep that tail where you want it. Also more headspeed(and therefore tailspeed) cant hurt. Whats you current headspeed? I found the 2400 the manual asks for to be a tad too low when I had an Mx400. It started getting much better at about 2600.

Not really sure what I'm pushing in rpm with the stock motor, my throttle curve was 100 inh 90 inh 100, now its 100 inh 95 inh 100. It seems to fly alot better, but I haven't inverted it since I upped the speed and upped the gain on the gyro. But it does seem alot more stable with the higher headspeed. Wish I could afford a digi servo :/
