Did you size the links and make sure everything is silky smooth with the pushrod disconnected from the servo?

How tight is your tail belt?

I ran very low tail gyro gain on mine, initially (AR7200BX). I used the stock tail pulley for quite a while.

I went to the larger diameter tail pulley, which slows the tail down, and was able to raise the gain quite a bit.

Ball spacing on the tail servo is probably around 5mm (I cannot recall off the top of my head). Most of my smaller machines run very short ball spacing distances.

Lower your radio tail gain. Also in the VBAR software lower the Tail Gyro Slider by 5.

I had this same problem check your tail blade grips.
Make sure they are tight on the tail shaft, But make sure they aren't too tight or they wont move freely.

OK, so I went back through the tail mech set up and I had over tightened the screws that hold the balls on the tail grips. Now tail is really smooth and this 360 is awesome and feels big in the air. Love it! Thanks for the help. Chris
