Drifting Limbs after recording

I recorded handle animation on my puppet - specifically his right arm (our left) pointing at his shirt. During playback, sometimes the arm stays up; sometimes it flops back to resting position. It's random. Not sure if I've done something wrong. I made a screen recording - not sure how to attach it. Thanks!

Is this during playback, or the encoded media?  If the ‘record’ on draggers is enabled (the red dot is lit up), it will not show the recorded value (it will show the default). If the record button is off for the puppet or dragger behavior, then you see the recorded value. This is during playback.

The other problem people have had is the dragger recording was kept, but the arm flops in an unexpected way (like the elbow goes the wrong way).

For screen recordings, you can upload to Google Drive, Dropbox, YouTube etc and share a link (the “play” triangle above the text edit region I think allows it to be embedded) but you can just include a link here as well. And yes, that makes it much easier to see.

It's regardless of if the dragger was triggered or not btw.
