I think vibration may be the problem. Did you balance your props and motors? After that check your battery. You should check your motor bearings too.

+1 to that... make sure you align the board properly. There should be an arrow mark on the board to do so. Proper balancing of the props will help you with the stability too. Do follow their instructions line by line. Throttle calib for all escs should be done for proper spooling up.

Have you checked the CG? It should be below the flight controller.

Aditya, your board SHOULD be in the centre, as lastRites suggested...
FYI,
Here is my H-Quad build......

Does your quad undergo fast oscillations in flight OR does it not react to control inputs fast? These are the only two problems that you can rectify by PID parameter tuning. So I am pretty sure that is not where your problem lies.

maybe your board requires a different motor direction layout....but i think this layout is the one for your board too.. its universal i think Head Scratching ...but again look for the manual if you can to be on the saafe side Thumbs Up
