If it survived a year, you may not have a furling problem at all. It took me a while to understand the furling mechanism myself, but once I read something Flux posted, it made more sense.
He said something like: Think of the tail as anchored downwind. When a big gust comes, it rotates the rotor out of the wind, due to the fact that it is offset from the pivot. I used to think my machine wasn't furling correctly, when in fact I didn't have a good understanding of the mechanics of it. Mine does in fact "move all over the place" like yours, but once I understood that every gust of wind is trying to steer it out of the wind, while the weight of the tail is trying to steer it back into the wind, the movement made more sense.
I have far less experience than a lot of other folks on here but I would think if the machine won't hold a sustained 75-80A at 12-13V, it might just be furling correctly.
