I've since discovered that my model is really a DragonFly 45, although I thought I had ordered a 40. Since the previous post, I've replaced the gyro and the servo but still the tail is spinning. I also purchased a servo but the movements of the new servo matches that of the old one. I used a different channel on the receiver and it still spins.

Rotating the main rotor rotates the rudder so I can't detect any slippage.

hello long time no post. I have just broken my ankle in a motorcycle accident so have got bored enough to dig out the df and try and get it working. A new receiver is on the table and awaiting modification. Unfortunately all the pictures are no longer hosted so its going to be guess work so wish me luck!

well the brushless works grate unfortunately I am getting very little movement from the tail motor again. seeing as this one is brand new I'm wondering if the wire is fatigued...
here are some photos of my handy work, they may help if you decide to do the same

Following instructions found here on an old dead DF 40 link I think there is a power issue were the tail motor needs its own supply of power s the current offered buy the servo plug is to small. I will keep you posted!

this should help anyone trying to go brushless on a walkera dragonfly 40 without upgrading to a new receiver and giro
