Is it doing it all the time or just near the end of the flight? Depending how your esc is set to cut off, soft cut off can cause the kick your talking about as it "pulses" the power.
check your tail slider isn't sticking
is it a belt drive or torque tube?Goblin 500 SportMatt

Also have a look at the ribbon cable from the gyro, ensure it isn't fretting against the frames and causing a short (assuming you have carbon fibre frames)Trex 500ESP - Scorpion motor, CC ice 75 esc. Spartan Quark gyro, Std Align servos
