In order to get any movement, I have to hold the button and instead of smooth operation, it is clicks and steps as it moves
Could it be a bad board?

More likely bad pins than a bad board. You can always try four different pins and see what happens. If both opening and closing the top acts the same, then maybe the transistors aren't working properly. Make sure you didn't wire them backwards... you might also want to check to see if the 1k resistor to the transistor is an acceptable value for the transistors you're using.
