Arm rigging issues

 Arms will go up, but get stuck and won't go all the way down. In general they are not following my body tracking like it should be. I have tried a bunch of random combinations in Arm IK, can't get them working properly.

Japanese was converted to English using translation software.
I also detailed the rigging of the arms since you shared your puppet in the other thread.
I made some corrections. The shoulder tag should be directly attached to the origin handle.
Please see the modified puppet for more details.
Thanks.

Hello.
Could you tell me more about your puppet's symptoms?

1) Is the arm not going up when you move it with the body tracker?
2) Is it the same when you move it with the mouse in dragger behavior?

If you can attach a screenshot of the rig mode, I can give you more detailed advice.
Thanks.

Hello,

 

So the arms move up perfectly fine, but they don't come back down at the same rate they get stuck with locked elbows somewhere around the waist. 

moving the arms with the dragger tool was working where they wouldn't get stuck at the waist. Now the dragger tool is just stretching the hand out and not really working. 

I desperately need the body tracker to work like the tutorial video and just really follow my movements, easily.

 

Thank you so much for your reply. I really appreciate it.
