Raptor 50 V2 Hover problem
I am having a minor problem when I am hovering my Raptor. I have a GY401/9253 setup. The engine is an OS 50. When I am hovering or trying to, the Rap will rotate left (looking from above) when I give it throttle and then when I lower the throttle it will rotate back to the right. It rotates about 1/8th of the circle and then holds there. Is this normal or do I need to adjust my gyro? The engine is running rich, I am slowing leaning it out.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Yes, I have my modes set correctly on the gyro. I can turn off the AVS mode and it will just slowly rotate so I have a minor adjustment to make and that will be corrected but a friend has a 30 that does not shift back and forth when you apply/reduce throttle so I would think that the 50 should behave similar. If I don't make major throttle changes then the tail holds well so the gyro seems to be acting correctly.

Well my parts came in a day early 
Hopefully I will get it put back together this evening. I will try and take it to the field. I will check on the revo mix this evening.
