how high do u have your bow braced? if u have too high a brace, it can affect the tiller (for example the mfgr calls for 8" and u have 9-10") that may also affect the nockset. you're not shooting vanes off the shelf are you? if you are, you have to have a really high brace heigth.

yes, "erratic flight" can be a result of improper nock set heigth but more times than not, it will 'porpoise' from incorrect nock set heigth. easily corrected by moving it up/down for correct flight.

side-to-side motion can be "plucking" the string on release, arrow-right/arrow-left adjustment or too weak of spine arrow.

get your bows mfgr brace heigth recommendations, set your nock at 3/8" above horizontal and go from there. off the shelf will normally require a higher brace than an elevated arrow rest.
