    Assuming the main blades are balanced it's probably the training legs causing the shakes, there tends to be a resonant frequency that clauses this and changing the head speed will stop the shaking.

    Did the head speed seem very high or low, when it was hovering?

    This brings the next question you mention it hovers at 3/4 stick do you have any idea how much pitch you have at this 3/4 position? I have no idea what pitch curve you are running so difficult to know which way to go.
