Default EP200EX tail pulley: 16T improve tail behaviour ?

Hello,
I was wondering if the 16T tail pulley would improve the bad behaviour of the standard EP200EX tail.

It this moment, my tail breaks out under (heavy) pitch pumps. when it could make more rpm I think it would improve.

Anyone facing the same kind of troubles ?

I will check the pulley on teeth count first, but assume the 16T is not on it already.

Different tail blade sizes, different length ball position on the tail servo and different tail servos will all effect this too, as well as to a small degree belt tension.

Honestly the best thing you can do as a start is get a bobby watts tail. The geometry plays a large role and this tail makes a good difference.

I had played with a bunch of servos and tail blades and unless I reduced my pitch I always has more deviation than I'd like with the V2 tail. Was about to put a mini servo on the tail but tried the Bw tail. Still running the Jr290 as the tail was alot better and am happy with the performance now.

+1 on the BW tail. Pretty sturdy design.

+1 on the BW tail. And the parts are interchangeable with the 255/X2 as well.
