      Thanks mate. I'm running on the fourth out (which is the furthest most hole out). I reckon this is contributing to my wagging woes.

        I was getting a wag in fast inverted backwards and a small drift in the hover when using the 4th hole. Moved in one, got 180-220 total in spartan endpoints (total) and halved, then adjusted manually so that I got full travel with no binding. problem solved and 38% on the spartan gain. kbdd tails

            Have you got a spartan usb? add the endpoints up ie 110 and 90. that would be 200. halve that so set both endpoints will be 100. set that on the spartan. obviously this will result in some binding so remove that mechanically.

            i was disappointed with my spartans after the v2 firmware upgrade but did the above and they are much better than pre v2

            think 180 to 220 total endpoint is the sweet spot. I was lower at first, and it wagged and drifted hence moving in a hole.

              Got you! Penny just dropped! Thanks mate. Currently got end points at 100 - 100. I'll try moving the ball in one hole then look at the end points on the laptop.

              Thanks mate!

                  don't know alot about spartans but if its like the SL720, it'll work best with even internal endpoints, you may need to offset the arm a little from the numbers your getting
                  cheers Lee


                  If it ain't broke fix it until it is
                  yes i'm an idiot and no i couldn't care any less

                    Bizarre I've just this week moved mine to the 4th hole out from the 3rd on the same 4 arm wheel.

                    Holding much better than before with no creeping tail and no wagging.

                    Gain turned down to 40% with my Spartan ds760.
