Hello,
I've been flying for about a year. Lately I've noticed a bit of tail wagging going on. I'm curious what everyone else has their settings at for this gyro. I'm using a 9CHP and hopefully I'll get some good ideas about other setups. I do a little 3d here and there. Also I've noticed that sometimes when I put my throttle hold on and do auto's the tail drifts. Any ideas, hints, or tips, would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sprocket

First, I'd replace the mounting tape.. You should have >70% in AVCS mode.
A drift in hold, while wagging in idle up sounds like loose tape, or binding linkage. My $ would be on the tape first.
It could be a dirty potentiometer in the servo, but that's a check after you've exhausted everthing else.
What machine are you flying it on? Headspeeds? Blade type, brand, size?
More info can lead to more/better/faster answers! :)

A raptor 60 with an o.s.70 about 1750 head speed, its a decent machine but i want one of those fancy Stratus' RIGHT NOW! Anyhow thanks for the help lamebird. I'll let you know how that works out. Take care.
