Tail rotor chatter

[muaymendez]

New to me 130x. Waiting on new batteries but on the only 2 hovers I did for setup. I notice right tail input would make the tail servo chatter and move quickly back and forth. I hope this makes sense.
. . What could this be?

Linear servo? they like to move around until they find the center pulse, likely moving some particles out of the way to achieve this.

Take it apart and inspect the legs and strip on the board..
Try some Deoxit D5 or similar and be gentle with the metal contacts.

Yep,new to me can mean old dirty servos.

It isn't hard to clean them but be very careful of where you put the screws after you take them out.

Mine like to jump onto the floor to play a game of hide and seek.
