Default Gs 540 Flutter Problems

I would change servos...see if you can find someone to let you try a couple higher end servos and see if it fixes the problem......i had 2-225mg's on the v-tail of my pilon plane with a ttpro40 and lost the plane due to the servo's......i had one crap out on me and since i just bought them my LHS just swapped them out for me for the same servo....when i flew it again another servo went out and i lost the plane....not saying 225's are prone to failure and definately not bashing but i wouldnt trust another plane to these servos.....just my .02

P.S. Im still running 925mg's on my chopper with no problems....so im not bashing hi-tech
yes , i would not try these servo's on a pylon plane either there is just much speed involved, the more speed you have the more torque you need, however this planes top speed might be 80 mph on a good down leg . this is a funfly and flys very slow not like scale edge 540. plus i would have to rebuild the tail section of the fuse to install bigger servos . however if i can not fix the problem i will have to rebuild .
thanks for the input and i hope the servo's hold up for me, i know they are on the low end for this aplication but they seem to hold very good in all other flight attitiude other than knife edge .

thanks
