Arrow,

Tail hops are almost 99% of the time in the grips, bad something or another. Check spindle/feathering shaft, make sure it isn't bent. Also, make sure that one of the rubber O-rings hasn't popped out of the rotor hub.

And a good mornin to all................ I finally got the Blade up and hovering last nite, finished out the one lipo and let it rest for 10 mins, then installed the second lipo and went back outside. About 2 mins into my second battery I was trying to hover and adjust digital trims and lost the bird for a second.............. Stuffed it into the flowerbed out front. Pulled a pitch link off the threaded rod........... ouch! Brought it back inside and fixed that and now I have the dreaded tail hop. I will be taking the blade grips off and examining them closely and lubing what i can then try it again. Going in late again today so will be able fuss with it for a bit. Rainy weather all weekend so won't be able to fly outside but will spend lots of time in my mini living room. Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee................Blade CP!
