Guys.
I have had problems with my Mini T just losing its grip and spinning through 180 degrees with fast backwards flight. I've upped my headspeed (by going 15T and setting 90% throttle) - got a S9257 tail servo and the new ish JR770 gyro.
The gyro is awesome in comparison with my old Futuaba 401. It had a really solid lock and I'm very happy with it.
The tail does still flip/slip out though during near flat out backwards (upright or inverted). At slower speeds its fine.
I've considered experimenting with longer / different blades too - but don't know which ones will fit the Mini T's blade grips. Anyone else changed blades. Am also concerned that the 325 main blades may come incontact with the tails if I'm not careful.
Anyone changed blades? Noticed an improvement?
May just have to take it slower backwards.
