Problem with only 2 days left

Ok here is the issue, we have a arm that rotates, there is a potentiometer attached to one end and the arm is actuated via 2 fisher price motors and their 125 to 1 gear boxes (the white plastic ones)

i am attempting to get the arm to "servo" so that it stays upright most of the time, (a little bit of play is okay)

im running into a problem where the arm is shaking violently back and forth

i have placed a dead band in the code to try and stop this but the arms momentum Carry's it right past the dead band.

the motors are running off victors and i have them set about as low as they go.

any ideas is greatly appreciated

- Bochek
