If its anything like mine, I have been having some issues with the AP not being strong enough to take it out of even a medium turn. I have adjusted both the LAT activity and the Lat Micro Activity. It was also "hunting" a bit (but a fast hunt... like left,right,left,right.... not the lazy hunting type). Finally the other day the sheer pin broke. We are taking the servo out of the plane tomorrow hopefully. Sending it back to TruTrak with $750. They'll rebuild it into a high torque servo (16:1 rather than 4:1 ratio). Also, it has a slip clutch rather than the sheer pin, which is a good thing. I'm hoping this will solve my issues. TruTrak said that the high torque servo gives 20lbs more torque (if I'm repeating that properly). My pitch servo is just the standard one and it seems to be operating fine. -dr -- Regards, Dico Reijers InternetWorks Ltd. 300 University Avenue Charlottetown PE, C1A 4M4 902-892-4671 (T) 888-368-9484 (F) www.internetworks.ca www.apartmentspei.com -- Regards, Dico Reijers InternetWorks Ltd. 300 University Avenue Charlottetown PE, C1A 4M4 902-892-4671 (T) 888-368-9484 (F) www.internetworks.ca www.apartmentspei.com --089e011619be7c2c1204e18208c0 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
