Too tight...too loose? As far as the pinion to drive gear mesh, I don't see how it could be cocked off (oblique) to the drive gear being how the bearings hold alignment. I've had it too tight...never too loose but I suppose you could get it too loose but not with the Auto Rotation hub and stainless shaft. Weird.
ORIGINAL: Oracus

I finally figured out my rotor head wobble. I replaced the stock plastic hub with a new one(LHS don't carry the MH CNC) and the wobble was still there. It would shake violently at 1/4 to 1/2 stick. Ok another complete rotor and MG tear down and inspection. All the pieces were good(ALMOST perfect)re-assemble and wobble still there[sm=48_48.gif]. So I thought maybe the main motor shaft is bent and crooked. It was straight and mounted a little off. But [sm=idea.gif] I noticed that my pinion to gear mesh was not were it should be and adjusted the gear mesh and NO WOBBLE. I had no idea gear mesh would cause low head speed wobble like that I guess you learn somthing new everyday.
