I have just found out that the kvs makes a big difference on the first video you will see there was no wobble in the head itself but I was using 1700 kv motors then I put on 950kv motors because they was using less power and I was getting better flying time and that’s why I was getting so much wobble on the head on the second video so ill have to refit the 1700 kv Motors then I’ll do another video to show how she fly’s I’ve just got a air wolf body so you never know I might just rebuild all the guts out of this one in to the air wolf it might look much better with all the guns on it
this video shows what im trying my best to build

You would need to put the tail on and run the test in the same conditions outside or vice versa as the previous flight was outside and with a tail ,it could be a duff motor or one of many things its a little strange that the KV of a motor would cause the first head stuttering especially with an electronic stabilizer in the mix , ive seen that happen before but only on single rotors and without stab kits and in those cases it was too slow a head speed but even that shouldnt happen with dual rotors unless something was out of balance or programmed wrong.
Either way glad you got it sorted but i would look a bit deeper into what is happening just in case it happens again.

I could not agree more Ade, ours are so much easier/quicker/cheaper to repair so wheres the sense in that

the same place as letting a box of electronics take the place of skill
