        No other parts broken. i had a boy look over it and he changed the gear for me but he showed me how to change the feathering shaft and i did wat he said. he said the rest of the heli was fine.

          The main shaft itself could be bent.

          You'll see by rotating the blades slowly yourself and if the top bit doesn't stay in line that'll be the issue.

                Did you build it from scratch or was it already built when you got it? If you strip the head if you have manual and take main shaft out and roll it on a totally flat surface if its bent you should see gaps of light appear underneath

                    If u have a spare main shaft put it on and try it that will eliminate whether the other one is bent or not, sometimes it's hard to see by eye

                          Is it only a wobble when spooling up, as it looked ok once it had reached a good speed.

                          If so, that's pretty normal.
