Default 110 tail authority

Im lacking tail authority on my electric 110. There is enough for general hovering and forward flight, but I just cant get the tail around quick enough for some nice piros or stall turns. The limitation seems to be in the limited collective the bellcrank at the tail will operate. I understand the Corona has a longer boom and larger TR blades, and Im wondering if I should be installing some of these?

Any thoughts? do you guys running nitros have enough tail authority?

Mossie, my nitro will spin like a top. I have the stock tail boom. What type of gyro are you using?

Just figured its the HH gyro fighting me. Its a JR460 and its being a *****. I swapped it out for my PRO's GY240 and the tail was sweet, so I guess its just a matter of setting up the gyro right.
