UPDATE FROM MABULA
I have had a very rough 2 months unfortunately health wise. I was struck 3x in a row with bacterial infections. The second infection occurred  after a routine hospital checkup and I became very sick. I had to rest and take a lot of antibiotics. Once I was recovering and restarting work 1 month ago, I again became sick. The infection was not yet gone, so even more antibiotics and rest was needed. Needless to say, it took a lot of my energy and I needed a lot of rest.
Finally, the infection is really gone and my energy is coming back step-by-step now and I have started work again. I am terribly sorry to have kept you waiting for support. I will address all outstanding questions and e-mails step-by step and will be on the forum daily from today.
APP 2.0.0-beta47 will come soon as well, a lot of work was already completed before I became very ill, so the release is also nearly ready for you. Beta47 will be much faster actually. Many workflows will be more than 2x faster, mosaics can even be 10x faster than before because registration really received a major boost... all compared to beta46. Â Before I release it, I will make sure that everything is working properly and then I will release it.
I ve stacked the individual panels but when I try to stitch the panels to make the mosaic I just cannot get a decent looking image at the end of it. 6 panels in total, I've forgotten how many integrations I've tried but all ends with the same result, have even tried stitching just 2 panels. Theres definately something I've done or left out as Ive done 2 mosaics before but this time I've hit a brick wall.

I tend to add all lights for everything (RGB etc) and assign to each channel and for all panes. Then add cal frames. Then make sure you choose the Mosiac option in 4. Registration Mode. Works fine but Ialso get the odd time it all goes mad...normally when I have ticked something wrong 😀
I know it works because I done this, been a while though.

Look like there was no calibration done on the background at all. Did you use flats, LNC during integration etc.?
@vincent-mod
yes flats used and am sure I used Lnc, I will re-run with and without.
It will also help if you correct the different stacks before making the mosaic. So using Light Pollution correction etc. If you used flats, it might also be that they didn't work correctly?
@vincent-mod
I know its not the lights as I've re-run the process on my 4 panel IC1396 mosaic again and thats stitched perfectly, perhaps I need look at the individual subs?
Mmmm, maybe, the mosaic panels though look like something went wrong with correcting them individually. I might have to take a look at some frames of all panels (like 5 each) if you want..
Am away now for a few weeks but I did calibrate and stack the 2 panels sunday morning in Pixinsight and stitched them using App, they blended very well, so could there have been something wrong during calibration in App
? or perhaps the settings?

Maybe, but also here the frames aren't very well corrected in the background. I still think removing light pollution first from the various stacks might help here.
