Status: offline 		I've had my CP for a while, all very good so far, until this. Flying it a while ago and the tail just suddenly became twitchy. I ran through one batery, let the motors cool, and came back to use up next battery. As soon as I get into the air, the tail is very twitchy. It iwll hold nice and straight and suddenly almost like, lose power, then suddenly rev power back up. I have not tested to see with direction it goes with it does this, but from memory, I believe it is to the left, which leads me to sudden loss of power. I did notice the yellow light flashing on my TX, like it's getting low, but it started after I was done flying. Any ideas on what this could be?

Status: offline 		So tail motors will even go out, even if everything is stock and I have heatsinks on them?

EDIT: Was just looking over at Helihobby and saw there direct drive tail system. Anyone tried this? Is it worth it?
