Status: offline 		I have a trex 550, which has been flying seamlessly for 6months or so... Lately, ive come across a twitch in the tail. As if it were signaling a low battery or something. My gyro is an align gp780. Is this temperature related, battery charge related, or what? Im not sure if i should go out and buy new batteries or adjust the gyro rate... It doesnt SEEM to make a positive difference if i change gyro or headspeed settings....

I havnt come across any other issues exactly like this, so ill upload a video if needed.

Thanks for bouncing ideas.



Ps, whats the max size vid i can upload here?

Status: offline 		There could be any number of things causing the twitch but the first thing i would do is check to see if all is tight and secure and the plugs are fully seated in the reciever and the second thing would be to try another servo before i start adjusting the gyro gain, especially if it was going fine before.
