Yeah, we've been amazed how much small changes in shooter wheel speed and hood angle matter...

My background is primarily mechanical, so I may be providing misinformation... I'll ask one of our software guys about this; however, if I recall correctly our PID loops are primarily "P" and "D." They at least used to often have little or no "I." If I recall correctly hunting is a sign of the "D" not being turned up high enough (and/or the "P" being turned up too high)... Take this with a grain (or two!) of salt! :-)
