Default T-rex belt

My belt keeps sliding of the gear in the tail housing. I have replace it the belt once and replace the tail gear in the housing 3 times with a new shaft ever time and it is still coming off. So what do I need to do to fix it?

Hum..I was flying and my tail stopped mid flight. Maybe I'm having the same problem? I heard a click at the end of a flip and my poor little trex started some very fast pirouettes.

The tailcase has to be exactly vertical. Recheck it and see if that helps.

You guys running metal pulley or the stock plastic one ? Upgrade to the metal one. THis has a firmer flange on it and it wont flex, Also, it almost sounds like your belt is too loose... It may not be, but I never threw a belt in mine for the time I owned it.
