Blade CP wobbles
Hey all hope all is well. I recently put on a set of the symmetrical blades. These blades seemed to fit quite a bit tighter which is probably the reason for my next question. Flying in my basement I hit a pole and from then on I changed blades to a flat bottom set and the bird just wobbles all over. I checked to make sure that the flybar was not bent and evenly distributed still nothing. Any ideas???? Thanks!

Could be the aluminum hollow shaft that holds the blade grips to the head. Mine bent several times. Remove the blades then the allen screws using a allen on both sides at once pull the grips off make sure you note the location of the washers and bearings. Roll the shaft on a flat surface to see if it is bent if so correct the bend and replace. While you have this apart you can straighten the main shaft if it is bent. Also make sure your blades are ballanced first before any of this and test.
