Hi folks, new here.
I've built two Laydowns now. I eliminated the slop between the eccentrics and gear housing using using a layer of cellotape around the eccentric, actually it took two layers to make it rock solid but we're still talking small fractions of a mm, depending on how thin your cellotape is.
Overall the car builds very well and doesn't have many foibles to problem solve. I'm pleased with the quality of it overall having not built a Schumacher before.
On another topic, dang it has a lot of chassis flex (intentionally), it surprised me, although I can see how nice and even the flex is throughout the chassis I may look to try the X-brace. I haven't run the car yet with the standard flex yet so can't comment.
I did notice how well the car was handling that flat landing at Arena33 last weekend, I know in the earlier rounds it was the KD we were seeing, up to leg 2 final in Michael's case. How relevant chassis flex and S2 towers (G10 let's be honest) are to that I don't know.
