Flying my corona with a stock 7cap tx. any suggested settings for expo?

And how do I get more tail authority? Seems like it takes a lot of stick sometimes to get the tail squared away..especially in the wind.

Since it's direct drive, you need to increase headspeed to get the tailrotor to work harder. Try using the 4x4 blade grips.

I'm using that setup and I like it better than 4x6...

I'm using the 4x4's now with the cf flybar and feather plate.Maybe it's a trim issue?

Check your TX to see if it allows percentages for endpoints on the channels. If it does, increase the percentage on the tail servo channel towards 100% until you're happy with the tail response...

I had a similar problem with my TREX and had to increase the Endpoint on channel 4....

I'll give that a go. Thanks.

I've got a couple of HS81 servos and just ordered a gy401 gyro. I'm hoping that will solve my wandering tail problems. I'm thinking that most of my problem is not tail authority, but having to constantly fly the tail especially when there's a bit of wind up.
