Quad Descent wobble

Hey guys.
Was out today trying to get rid of the wobble. Have been adjusting I gain but it still wobbles. Is this as good as it gets or am I overlooking something.

The wobble on descent is normal on multirotors. The explanations I've heard are that it's caused by the rotor descending through it's own prop wash and/or blades stalling.. In any case on the multis I've flown (not that many to be honest) the only way to avoid it is to descend very slowly or descend while flying with high forward airspeed.

Yea, that little bit of wobble is completely normal. You can try to keep playing with the PID settings and see if you can get it a little better, but that is pretty darn close to perfect IMO.

That bit of wobble may be common but it is tunable.
What flight controller and what firmware are you using?
What size quad, what props and what battery?
Are you flying acro or a self level mode?
Have you got a couple of spare channels on your tx with at least one 3 position switch?
More information = more chance we will be able to help.
