Default Raptor 50 V2 bucking problem?

I just finished building my 2nd (50V2)heli and once I got it into the air it started bucking up and down like I was putting elevator cyclic input in. It had a little vibration in it when it starts to spool up but once the engine comes up on speed it was fine. I landing and checked the tracking and all parts seem fine. It has a full Mavrikk metal head on it with v-blades. Just looking for some input on were to start checking. Thanks in advance for any help.

Check for loose links and rod lengths could be out.
