I had to drop the Roll (Aileron) gain as I was getting cyclic shakes. Increased Pitch (Elevator) gain slightly on the main page. -

Tail ESC with flashing connections added for BLHeli. Used a micro servo extension lead which plugs straight into the USB flashing tool. -

Using a lightweight flybar with ground down weights (sub 10 gram) which help achieve more cyclic response. Servos upgraded including internal resistor mods to get maximum throw -

Orange satellite receiver hung on the side. Small and light! -

Initial servo arm mod. Cyclic better but still pretty poor -

Bigger badder arm extensions! Starting to get some response! -

Testing range of servo movement with normal size resistors. Angles indicated by pencil lines for standard throw, and activating "turbo" on the stock Tx with 2.2K resistors. Servos are capable of much greater movement (probably ~120 degrees) -

Actually 4.7K resistors used, fitted as indicated. They need to be connected inside the servo, hence the decision to use the micro resistors.... -

Inside the servos. Connections were made by removing the black wires from the PCB, soldering the resistors, then attaching the resistors to the black wires. Note that I hotglued the resistors and wires thoroughly to withstand my high speed crashes! -
