I took the antenna off the wrap around the landing skid method recommended and put it through a piece of Ny Rod strapped to the skid...this cleared up my glitch problem!

But now...I have a new issue that has just started, I no longer have any control on the tail direction, ie I can hold the tail over manually for a little bit then the thing will start rotating in the nose left direction, even after adjusting the pot meter clockwise...until it hits the stop...anyone with ideas on why this rotates and has little control over the boom anymore??? The motor/ prop are spinning fine and the main head is smooth???
