HI,

I recently crashed my Blade 400 and cant figure out why my tail servo isnt really working. I swapped in a different servo and that isnt working either.

The crash was a tail boom strike on stunt mode.

-Gyro - Any chance the gyro got damaged? It looks like it was untouched, but can a gyro get damaged by the jarring action of a crash?

-Rx - All the other servos (cyclics) are working fine and the connection seems fine with a solid red light.

How do i diagnose the problem? I dont want to buy a gyro and find out that wasnt the problem...

Check the old and new servos on another Ch. If they work it has to be the gyro.

Hi,

first of all disconnect the gyro from the receiver. Try if the tail servo works direct in the rudder channel of receiver. If no, try to connect another servo and see the results. If no one doesn't work then it is receiver's problem. If one works, then try to connect it via gyro. If it doesn't work, then it is gyro's problem. It is very often that a crash can spoils the gyro or the receiver even if they looks like they are untouched.
