1. Very important to spray your belts with silicone spray
2. Make sure all your boom support rods are glued or pinned (very important)
3. Correct belt tension

Another thing to check if your getting belt noise is the governor gain on Castle ICE controllers.  Gain should be low.  I got really bad belt slipping with anything above 5 on the Castle governor.  I'm running a Scorpion 4525LE motor with the gov gain set to 1 and the PWM set to 16Khz. 

Matt Botos:
Also make sure your tail output shaft is in the right position. (5mm protruding out of the left side of the tail box)
DO NOT use all of the available right rudder throw, you will stall the tail and the belt will skip. The tail was designed to allow the user to determine how much torque counteracting rudder throw is needed. I leave about 4mm between the brass slider and the tail box flange bearing.
