Hi there,

I have just finished the building of my 419x w/o electronics and these are my main concerns:

• Shocks and zero rebound: after several tries, the most I can get is 2mm rebound or so. As said before in this thread, the more I tight the cap the more rebound I get :S. I will try in the future with black o-rings. In the meantime, I think it is good enough as it is.
• Spool and bearing holders too tight inside front bulkheads: the the diff in the rear bulkheads was nice and it was spinning freely even after attaching bulkhead covers but... I cannot say the same for spool and front bulkheads. It was really difficult to attach the bearing holders into the front bulkheads and, after that, spool does not spin freely at all... It spins, but it seems too tight for me compared to the rear diff. After covering bulkheads, things were not worse but, as soon as I attach the front shock tower, things became even worse . People in my club said that it seems a bit tight but anyway, that I should not be worried until 3 or 4 runs... What do you think? should I try to rebuild from scratch or loosen and tighten bulkheads+top deck+shock tower screws?
• Top plate plate and pulley: I would say it is not binding but just for 0,1mm . I've seen some of you sand the inner side of the carbon plate but others (Qatmix I think) were able to align the plate to avoid binding without sanding. I would like to get from you some advice/trick/suggestion to do that cause I am not able to achieve a good feeling after several attempts (flat surface, cross pattern when tightening, using all screws to attach bulkheads, using anti tweak bar, etc, etc). People in my club said that it will be "sanded" anyway when running a 5.5t but I would like to get some control over that instead of waiting to see the results :S.

I will attach electronic this afternoon and hope to get it running as soon as possible!

Thanks in advance for your comments.
Regards
