I must admit, when I tried my hydradrive on my CR2, I just undid the screw a bit further to take it into account. It seemed to work ok...

Legacy, can I ask you if you were running the 'std' AC gearbox (with the external idler) or the internal 4 gearbox? Interesting comments about the flywheel effect... I know on the X6 gearbox, the flywheel effect is supposed to to counteract the motor rotation and so smooth out the front rear weight transfer with power(which is why they sell a bigger brass slipper plate), but I think with the external idler, the flywheel effect is 'with' the motor, so the motor torque is accentuated... Does this make it 'worse'? It'll be interesting to find out which gearbox you've got...

Thanks...
