Default Tail setup

Just want to reconfirm proper way to setup Tail?

- Set Tail servo horn as close to 90 degree.
- Set Tail pitch close to 0 degree on Tail Blades. Actually leaving a litte pitch on it ( I have Gaui 200/450d01)
- Set Gryo on radio to about 35% to Rate mode.
- Configure Tail endpoints for no binding.
- Make sure Tail blades returns back to zero pitch and align to each other.
- Make sure servo horns goes back to 90 degree
- Leave Rudder trim at center (netural).

Am I missing anything else?
It always seems that whenever I go to reconfigure my tail, after crash or changing tail parts. I have problem and heli always spins in circles. It takes me awhile to get it going.

Also when setting Tail endpoints, do you set it to get max range (most pitch) or just enough. I don't fly 3D yet so should I aim for most tail range without binding.

I have Gaui 200 and Walker 450D01. It seems when I choose most rudder range, heli would turn more than I want it? Would max range also cause excessive horizon tail wag, even with low gryo gain?
