Default Any good tail assembly for Align 450 Pro
I try to find any good tail assembly for 450 Pro - other than Align itself. The definition of being "Good" is in terms of geometry and sloppiness. Beam E4 should fit but no available/hard to find parts now. What about Mini Proto ?

Thanks.

I thought the Align tail assembly was considered to be pretty good.

Tarot's Tail set up has no slop and I have been quite pleased.

Latest version of Align tail assembly still have geometry issue: left side travel is much less than right side travel. Tarot is clone of Align, problem still exist.

I did that already in both of my 450 Pro and 465. However, left travel was a little bit better be not close to 50/50.

That's why I try to find any other brand tail assemblies that may fit Align tail boom and does not have this geometry issue....

Have you tried to flip your grips? I flipped mine and set up to just about even travel in the vbar, 86 & 84 and I get between 27 & 29 degrees of pitch on both sides w 4 to 6 at center against torque.
