shakes: mine shakes just a little bit when spooling up, not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing. Probably have something out of balance a tad bit. Flies fine though. *shrugh*

The vibration you're getting from the above problem may be responsible for the hunting. Try turning down the gyro's gain, and make sure the tail control linkage moves nice and smooth with no sticking. If the glow plug's on tight it shouldn't bother anything.

The flybar should be level when the swashplate is level and the main rotors are at the same pitch. The paddles should also be flat at that time.

It may shake until the main blades find their center of gravity. Make sure the blade bolts are not too tight. The blades should fall when gently touched while heli is on its side.
