I have a wag that’s not the same as a high gain setting waggle. It happens in HH and non HH mode as well. Checked boom, Belt tension from one extreme to the other. Checked tail shaft. Replaced tail assembly with all new parts. Even tried unplugging the remote gyro plug from the receiver and ran it with the gyro settings from lo to high. Still wiggles. Replaced servo and Gyro. Still have the slight shakes. At times it will take an unsolisitated jump to the left. I can catch it and bring her back to the original heading and after about 20 or so seconds she jumps back to the right. Again, these actions happened with the old gyro and servo and continue to happen with the new parts. I’m at a loss. Any ideas what is wrong?

I'm experiencing something similiar (I think) and captured it on video...

I'm stumped as well! Mine will actually go away, but may or may not return.

It sure looks like a twitch caused by the gyro gain being too high in RoyBob's case.
I had a similar twitch and abrupt kickout (as described by jp473) when I tried using the Spektrum DSP75 on the tail in digital mode.
What servos are you guys using on the tail and are you in digital or std mode?

I am using hs56hb on the cyclic and an hs55 on the tail. I have tried an eflight eflrds75h and hs 56hb on the tail. Now today I took it to the park and got 3 flights out of her. And again, in normal mode it wiggles with the gain set at 20. I kick r into high gear and the tail becomes more responsive and jess likely to go off on its own.
