I'm seeing if I can get my tail to hold solid on my agile 5.5 while running a low head speed. The only way I seem to be able to achieve it to hold in hard pitch maneuvers is to add a bit of revomix, because they have a low tail gear ratio.

On doing this The tail held fine, very slight movement in pitch pumps, but if I hover and pull the ele stick back I find that the tail drops, but it also drops to the left. It looks as though I am adding some left aileron. So I added a lot of expo to my tx and it still did it.

When I tried it I the bench I see the tail slider moved when I give ele or ail commands. Not heaps of movement but I think this is causing the issue.

Should this be happening when I've added revomix?

I am using the spirit pro, normally no revomix with a higher HS, tail is solid and it tilts straight when pulling the eke stick back.

Cheers.

Yes, this is normal.

If you are seeing odd behavior, then the revomix value is probably too high. I recommend maximally value of 4.
But instead of Revomix you can always increase Pirouette Consistency which acts as revomix but naturally.
This could solve tail holding in low RPM.

Ok I'll try that. Thanks
