As I reviewed the films, I noticed that your Corsair was constantly being cross-controlled. What this means is that you are always carrying some rudder displacement. Looks to me like a twisty stick with a bad pot.
Load the AH2 software and select offline practice. Pull up your clipboard and click Options/Controls/Map Controllers. Select your stick, highlight the Z axis and check the Advanced box. When the window slides out, pay attention to the vertical scale on the right. Your Z axis indicator should be centered. If not, recalibrate. If it still won't center, your pot is probably toasted. If centered, continue....
Move your stick fore and aft. Note if the Z axis indicator moves.
Move your stick left and right. Again, note if the Z axis indicator moves.
Rotate the twisty left and right. Note if this causes the Z axis indicator to jump around.
If any of the above occurs, your stick needs repair or replacement.
Now, should none of the above be evident, you may be twisting the stick inadvertently. So, add more dead band to the Z axis by moving the slider up about 1/4 of the total range from the bottom.
Recalibrate and test fly to see if the "shaking" goes away or is significantly reduced.
While checking the Z axis, take a few minutes and check the X and Y axes for spiking too.
It's tough enough competing with a top level duelist like Furball without having to fight your stick as well.
