Video wouldn't play to see what you are describing. I get vibration on the head the more speed I use but I use that as a speed indicator since there is not one on the remote.

It means that the armature is out of balance or not true (straight)

UPDATE: I went fishing one last time last week before taking it off to go to the shop. First cast of the day I got a birds nest and got line in the prop. I didn't notice right away and the motor started making a clicking noise. I killed the motor, took off the prop and cleared the line and replaced the prop. After this, the motor stopped vibrating/oscillating. It worked perfect the rest of the day. I have no idea what that means but I'm not sure if its fixed or not. Right now I'm just waiting to see if it starts doing it again.
