Tail motor on srx

[honwal]

I had some real gains yesterday on srx a good four packs with 180's and 360's on fifth pack was going to do some walking 180 turns, hovered for the start two feet off ground (was going higher) when srx went tail down breaking tail casing after taking of back end i tried motor and it went then stopped would you say this was motor failure or something more,

thanks

tail-down wouldn't be tail motor - that would cause an uncontrolled spin. Tail down would be something around the swashplate. Link come loose or servo failed.

Thanks tom I have changed both servos from my other srx, just got to give it a test flight,

Check everything looks good on the bench before test flying it!

yes cheers Tom all looks good, once you get familiar with replacing parts and working on heli its quite enjoyable,

thanks for the benefit of your experience,
