What servos are you using?  This is likely be due to
drift in the servos.  I use Hitec HS81s and HS85s and
one or more usually need retrimming each flying day.

Digital servos may be less vulnerable to drift but
they cost about twice as much.

Possible but I did not think they move that much.

I have HS-85MG on the wing and HS-125 on the V-tail. Yes, they are not Futaba. The tail surfaces are OK. just the ailerons and flaps.

Are you sure this is a radio problem? It sounds more like an issue with pushrods to me.
Nylon/plastic pushrods have a tendency to untrim themselves due to temperature
fluctuations, especially from an air-conditioned house/basement/car to a hot field. It
can be a bit baffling at times (and more so if it happens in the air :) )


As for pushrod, these are all metal clevis with soldered one on one end and threaded one the other end. The pushrod itself is the metal 4-40 (?) size from your major hobby company. and they are only 4 inches long.

Must be the radio, right? the saga continues.....
