Sitting on the runway or in level flight FPS jumping from around 45 to 170 and back and forth, I would expect some flux but this is a bit much.

You haven't stated whether or not other moving objects were around you at the time. The more there are, the FPS will drop
considerably.

Why do you care? I only notice the difference below 20 FR. So I run at 30-80 FR. No point in having an FR of 140 when the eye refreshes at around 30 max. But hey, I'm in rant mode, feel free to beat me with blunt objects

switched to the 61.77 drivers, FPS is now stable @ 68-75
