How does it behave in Stabilise? Sounds like it was a bit windy (gusty?) and that the quad could do with some basic PID tuning to me.

It flies the same in stabilize as shown.  I couldn't get an ideal day to fly so I wanted to show the wobble.  That rocking you see back in forth is very consistent in all modes.  The middle of the video highlights the problem I have been having best. 

 

Definitely not ruling out the PIDS, just seems odd to be consistent over all modes and at least 4 firmware versions.

Hello Ben,

This is a wobble effect in stable mode, try increasing I and lowering P... I suggest you strongly to see this excellent tuto with very helpful videos about the PID tuning of the Arducopter at:

Here the video which explains you the problem and its solution:

Good tuning, Jean-Louis

Thanks Peter and Jean-Louis,  I will tune it once I get some good weather.  I will try to post a video of the results later this week.
