This is a new bird I had a tail wag issue fixed that! but I noticed since The wag is gone I noticed another thing with the heli, its hovering smooth but if you change cyclic it wobbles (the hole frame) a little then smooths out again its not a problem (I dont think?) but its a little annoying any thing I should look for?

I pulled it all apart and locktited it all nothing is loose that I can see, I cant fine any binding?

this is a Sport combo ds410's on cyclic, links was sized

that usually happens because of blades being too tight followed by low head speed and overly tight links and mixing arms.

I sanded down the main blades to fit loser, I sized all the linkage

I guess I'll try more head speed

what should the head speed be around, This heli is for my friend just getting into the hobby never flown before

How's the tracking? Did you balance the blades?

Perhaps if you are comfortable and it's set up properly, you could try flying it in idle up and see how it performs then. If the problem goes away then you know it's head speed. My normal throttle curve is 0,60,73,87,100. My idle up throttle curve is 100 flat. That way too there is very little jump from the heli switching between normal and idle up.

Just be double certain that there is nothing else wrong with it, or switching to idle up the first time could spell disaster.
