e-Align T-REX 250-450-500-600 > T-REX 600 tail holds but constant slow wag??

Ive replaced both gyro and servo with new ones 9254 +401, everythings mechanicly sound, good belt tension good, servo centered and good travel, e.t.c.. Gain settings dont help.
Tail holds rock solid in climbout, even flips, but ever since new has got this annoying pendelum thing going on, its like the tail is swaying left to right about 1 to 2 inches constantly.
Anybody had this problem before, I can only assume its something to do with either the speedy or motor not running smoothly, dont know if I should just keep flying it or not, it flies fine you can see the tail wagging every now and then in ff but it was only last night with the light going down at the end of the day decided to just hover around a bit I noticed how bad it really is.
I can fly it but its just not right to have the tail doing that..

Is your esc in governor mode? Mine did the same thing with two different motors. Stopped once I reprogrammed the esc out of governor mode.

I couldn't stop mine wagging very slowly it would creep left then right i tried every thing.I could mail you a list of things that don't work but the one below does.
I then fitted the Kasama tail rotor hub and grips, instant fix to the problem solved it and its been solid ever since.

I had the exact same problem and solution. Those Align tail rotors are just not that good – some work well and some don’t. Kasama is a winner.

((This is an edit after below)Do you recomend just upgradeing the parts shown in the bag, or do I need the entire metal tailcase aswell??))
Thankyou very much, Ill upgrade the tail ASAP. Im not running gov mode, would love to but from reading on these forums it doesent work.. allthough I havent actually tried useing it myself to see if it works or not.
What do you think it is thats the prob with some of the stock tail units? is it the grips too loose? my ones dont feel any worse than on any of my other helis as far as lateral movement, the shaft does not move at all laterally.
