Remember there's two gains...one on the Tx and the second is on the BeastX. Look in the beastx manual at the back there's some troubleshooting tips. Might have to increase gain. How does it fly in forward flight?

Hello John, yes I have adjusted that as well forward flight was ok it seems just when I pitch up vertical I could hold it on the sticks all other axis on giro were locked in ?

Check parameter menu item "F" and use the default "off" setting. Also, check dial "3" probably want it about centered between + and -. If I'm correct this is a nitro Raptor 50 so you might also have a vibration issue?

Yes tried tweaking dial 3 it was at its best centered what does the default off position turn off? There doesn't seem much vibration to my eyes it is also shaft driven to the tail if that's of use in diagnosis? Will go through and check parameter menu f on heading lock f is highlited then blue led comes on sorry for being a nuisance and apprecate all your help !!

I set parameter f to off which I now suspect was cause of problems as when I got the heli back supposed to be ready to fly rudder and giro were reversed which i corrected but I didn't reverse (f) which I could see bye throttle up tail blades pitched slightly nose right which is the same as natural yaw on heli so turned off also tail servo was incorrect frequency checked off beastx website and adjusted accordingly checked all other servos which more adjustments were needed so will try and fly weekend thanks Steve.

If you haven't already got one...get the manual for the beatx and read it several times to familiarize yourself with what each of the setup and parameter settings control. The manual also has info about the three dials on the gyro and, again, what they do and what some of the symptoms are with various incorrect settings. While people on the forum can help immensely, each heli is different - even the exact same heli that you have - so the settings will be different, they'll also vary according to your experience level and flying style...
