k- i figured it out!!!!!! i found more slippage in the tail... the gear wasnt holding the shaft for whatever reason- so i changed set skrews and now holds fine... i mounted the gyro "floor wise" and i think the biggest problme was this bug i noticed--- if i turn the heli on when the ch5 switch on my tx is in the upward position- the gyro flashes and i think it might be in some sort of errord mode-- but when i start with switch the other way- the gyro responds with the correct light patterns... dont even want ot open that can of worms- but at least i know how to get that straight... the heli now is finnaly tolerable- now i just have to fine tune it a bit... tail seemed a bit twitchy though- what could this be?? just tried to mount the gyro on the motor platform just for now to see if the positioning would help-- so i guess ill make that frame extension.. Thanks alot guys for you help!!!!! any ideas on how to get the tail less twitchy? would that be shorter delay on gyro? or is it due to where i mounted it..??

Thanks again!
