I have a weird bug? on my tricopter when I try to yaw, it seems like the gyro is trying to correct it.
I see the motor tilt to yaw, and then while I'm still applying yaw, i see the motor go back to vertical.

Does anyone else have this problem? how can i fix it?

Check if gyro comensates in right direction.
Rotate the TRI and the gyro should tilt motor in opposit direction.

To reverse gyro.
#define YAW_DIRECTION 1 // if you want to reverse the yaw correction direction
//#define YAW_DIRECTION -1 // Reverse direction.

Reverse RcChannel in radio to get the control right.
Looking from the back the motor should tilt opposit way as the rudderstick.
