Sounds like a missing tooth or two on the drive gear of the potentiameter......aka bum servo. BTW I finally flew mine for the first flight after the terrible maiden landing. All dialed in and flying great but the nose gear gave out on landing. Looks like the original damage to the underlying foam is too much. Gonna have to replace the fuselage and switch everything over. All because I failed to set the ailerons to indicated throws when setting it up originally.:Loser::Crying2: Sure wish you could get replacement ailerons without having to replace the whole wing!!

Are you using a gyro?

The first few flights were great but now she doesn’t want to stay stable. On the ground the servos work fine but I did notice the elevator servos a bit notchy and not smooth.

I'm flying my F-22 stock 6S and totally love the things you can do with it - which is very much a direct consequence of weight.
Had some interesting 8S vs 6S discussions on FB and other places, and a lot of people seem to not appreciate the impact of weight (and lack thereof) nearly enough.

After reading much on the CG, I decided to see where my CG was using the Xicoy machine and the 5000 battery. The wire clutter is from the after burner lights and so forth. I have not flown yet; therefore I cannot comment on how this CG behaves. It worked well with my other planes.2 Photos

Perfectly stock 6S F-22.
