Joe, you ever had any issues with the worm gear swing on the Vario? When the boom is rotating "downhill" it pulses really violently shaking the whole model. Doesn't seem to be a way to adjust the gear mesh? Talking with Izzy and Travis over the weekend, they were thinking the gear reduction might not be low enough. Thinking the heavier grease they use isn't helping much. Worm gears always work better with lighter oil/grease.
