Hi

I bough a 2nd hand raptor 60 a while ago.... been pulling its teeth gradually.
All seems fine now. except, the previous time I flew.... doing a fast pyro... the tail started wagging on stopping the pyro. I just unched the throttle a little and it went away... now yesterday... in a forward flight.... i switched to idleup, and the tail started wagging! I pulled into a hover.. waay up there... punched it, the wag would not stop and seemed to get worse!! SDo i decided.. hey! its about time I tried an auto.... :-)

So I cut it... and auto'd it down with very little damage... just a scuff on my tail boom.... :-) MY first auto!!!

Anyway.. what can be the problem.. the previous time when it hapend I was also in idle up. but I flew it fine.. no tail problems.. given I did not fly it too hard...

If the gain is too high, it would start wagging from the word go, right? What am I missing here?

Thanks

Congrats on you first auto!

What is you gain at now and what type of gyro are you running?

Sorry. I have a CSM 420 gyro with a JR digital servo on the tail..

Gain is at about 75 I think...
