Hi!

My tail is waggling like a happy dogs tail and i have tested everything.(changing servo, belt, blades) But now i am looking for a new sensor for the Solid G (just the sensor) anyone know were to find it? (its my last hope)

or got any other tips?
It holds the tail ok (small annoying shaking) before i start giving rudder. then it starts to bounce and bounce and bounce.

Thanks!

I see you have one on your 500 as well. Did you swap them out to see if that's what it really is? I guess you could email Cutis to see if they will sell you just a sensor. I don't imagine anyone else will sell it alone. On another note, I just lost tail control on my 600 yesterday. Was hovering fine when it just started spinning. (solid G gyro as well). Got it on the ground with only a broken front landing gear. I had just rebuilt it after my first bad crash and at first had trouble getting the gyro amp to go into setup mode. Took several resets. I plan to reset everything again, but now I'm worried about this thing going out on me when Ieast expect it.

Hi had the same problem with mine. I contacted CYB and they told me to turn the gain to 55-65%, its a very sensitive gyro and does not need lots of gain like the other gyros out there. I always set my gyros to 80% now that its down to 55% its perfect!!

I take it you're talking about the gyro menu, not the setting on the G-view. What servo are you using? I just don't know why my tail quit on me yesterday. It was like a receiver glitch, but I had control over everything else. It seemed to work fine after getting it on the ground and then repowering everything, but I couldn't fly because of the broken gear. I think I'll unplug everything and check the connections. Probably should have done that anyway after my crash the first time.
