I can't say for sure it was the 8005 but I swapped it for a BLS276 and the wag was gone. I have seen the 8005 work great in other cases though. From what I hear it has to due with the 8005s ultra small dead band and tail mechanics not being absolutely perfectly smooth. Some say D gain needs to be ran lower than normal with that servo. Lets be honest here our tails on the 7HV/Chronos are a battle to get to that "butter" state. I chose to stop battling it and put a servo less sensitive to it in.

My Chronos went in today 😕.
Most of the damage was on the head. Tail boom and some other bits. Frames all good. Batteries all good. |

Ouch sorry to see a tri-blade in that state. It looks like it went in inverted. Good thing the electronics and lipos appear ok.

Yip, i went in inverted.
I've stripped it down. Not as bad as it looks. I'm going to put it back to 2 blades until parts arrive. |

Bummer, I feel your pain. At least the damage is less than you thought and hope you get her back up quickly.

Looks like the "Pinch style" pitch arms took most of the damage on head, is that correct? What about shafts, swash, drivers, did they all fair well?
Otherwise it looked like mostly tubes, boom,struts, the easy, cheap stuff Just finished up swapping out my connectors to the RCproplus D6 on my Chronos, to match all my new TP batts! Going to give it a shake down flight tomorrow, hasnt seen any air since late fall. Due for some nice air time!

Perfect flying weather today, no wind, low teens Celcius... First time I flew this year wearing only a t-shirt and no jacket. Flew three packs on the Chronos and three on the Atom 500. I wish I had charged more packs.
Charging the lipos for the Atom and Chronos this morning: A few cell phone pics at the field:
