Tricopter tail servo jerking in flight

Post by trobinson3003 »

Hello,

I began flying tricopters a few days ago. After liftoff, I recognized that after a few seconds, the tail servo intermittently "jerks" causing the tail to swerve. It seems to get worse the longer I fly. Attached is a youtube video I made showing the problem. It occurs around 35 seconds and stops at 38 seconds. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
