I got tail motors down. Symtoms are:
1. The tail wont hold no matter what you do with the gain/pot.
2. The tail motor wont hold to changes in the main motor speed changes.
3. Tail motor gets "noisy", and/or speed of the tail motor will flux up and down even when hovering steady in one spot.
4. when you land, the tail will kick hard to one side.
5. heli spins like a top (motor really shot).

Crash & Choppers, Thanks for the opinions. I am going to pick up a new tail motor on Wednesday. The more I think about it, the more that makes sene. On occasion, my tail motor will start spinning up AFTER the main, that has to tell me the motor/gear is binding somehow. It's funny how a problem can be staring you down yet you over look it somehow. That's what makes this thread and ALL of you so great!
