No information?
What chopper, what gyro, what servo...
makes it hard to offer help if you don't include enough information.

Ahhh the ever so hard to track down TREX tail wag. ;)

What kind of tape are you using to secure the 401? What works for me is the zeal tape. I had tail wag I could not get rid of then I switched to zeal...wag gone. I to am using HS-56 with 401.

Other things to check are linkage binding, limits set right on the 401, tail belt not to loose in tail boom causing slapping of the belt and wag.

sorry i keep missing you : :roll: i added another layer of double sided tape its calmer
i will try the limits on the gyro its amazing trying to narrow down the cause its all a
learning process :smokin: i want to calm the tail then i can concentrate on fine tunning the trim so ican finally hover : :bomb:
