Default Tail issue with Tarot ZYX

I have upgraded to the ZYX about 2 months ago and I like it a lot. It is great for sport flying but I have found a problem with it doing more demanding stuff. When I do heavy + and - pitch pumps the tail blows out and the heli starts to turn to the left on its own. I get no blowouts in heavy single pitch pumps but up and down it really starts to show.

I would appreciate your input on how to solve this issue because I will be getting into doing more 3D and I would like a capable bird.

Today I was doing tic tocs for the first time and the tail does not hold for very long. I ended up flying my bird to the right and recovering.

I realize the I can set the Tail Compensate Collective to Tail parameter, and I have tried it, but that gives me a tail jump to the right with a heavy pitch pump which is not desirable, but may compensate for continuous pitch pumps.

Here is my setup:
