Raptor - Tail too sensitive!
I'm looking to tame the tail a bit on my Raptor 30. The gyro is holding OK, (I don't get that same locked in feel as I do with my Futaba 240 and 401 birds though). The issue is that I need to de-sensitize the stick input; just the slightest movement is pretty dramatic in the movement of the tail. It seems that I need to dial in some expo but the gyro manual tells me to keep it at zero (no expo). I'm running a Telebee GR701 gyro and a JR7202 radio.
Any suggestions??
Thanks,
KT

Also ... if the 701 operates the same as the 401, reducing your rudder channel end points will reduce your max YAW rate.
