Default Tail pitch slider links over extending

Ok I'm bored but I decided to rebuild by tail after a mishap with some snow. I bought a metal replacement.

I noticed that if I drive the tail pitch to its maximum extents the links can over extend and lock the tail up.

I didn't notice that before.

Do you see the same behavior ?

It's normal. You just have to be careful when setting your tail servo limits.

I had this happening on a 550 a few years ago. Danged if I could figure out why the tail wasn't quite right at times. Then, one night, I noted that the hub was sitting not quite all the way on. The face of the shaft was maybe 0.5 to 1mm inside the hub. It was resulting in the same behavior. Soon as I corrected that, it was all good.
