You're gonna love that slider - it gives maximum travel!

The new arm is also fantastic - stiff and non-flexing (glass filled and stocky).

Mine's got a little tiny bit of "slop" - kind of like gear mesh setting. Enough that if it was on a ball link I would be concerned, but on the tail slider it doesn't cause any problems. Is yours more significant than that?

I coudn't see your first two pictures on the RR thread - the links are broken (file not found).

That's the picture I could see. Yes, mine has a little movement on the ball (for comparison, it is more than I would permit on a worn ball link - I wouldn't fly on a ball link with that much movement). The extra movement on the slider and the fact that it doesn't bind throughout its movement is worth it.

It might be causing the gyro and tail servo to work a little bit more, but I wouldn't worry about it.

If it is really a problem, Align will come out with another upgrade part in a month or two anyway!
