Do they fly well??
Not flown the Goblin with this firmware - how should the heli react in the air?

It seems like it doesn not re-centre the swash - whay is that?

I had a DJI Naza H on the Raptor but it was faulty - if I put it into GPS mode it would add a load of collective and then try to go inverted

i really wouldn't get too concerned with it. If you have set them up correctly and the swash is level after initialization then just go fly!!

I'm not going crazy but Spirit didn't used to behave in this manner?

how will it perform in the air - if I push left alieron and return the stick to centre, will the swash level itself?

It will perform ok. It will level the swash quickly. Again, what you are seeing is the bench behavior. If you have followed all the setup steps and verified the correction and direction of the swash movement, everything is fine.

I will test fly the Goblin this weekend hopefully, weather permitting

Finally flew the Goblin - flew very well, no issues with the swash at all.

Thanks for the help and advice
