Only bitch about the RCM stuff is that the motor mount bottom motor screw hole was huge! I think the CNC machine was just supposed to recess the outside of the hole a bit, like the top motor screw slot, but it made an 8mm hole all the way thru the mount. I used an 8x4 bearing to fill out the hole to fit a 4mm bolt and put a thick washer under the bolt head. This will work OK for now, until I can get the official Serpent parts.

Ummmm That bottom hole is supposed to be filled with the little spacer that came with the motor mount and kit. Its not a mistake. Its designed to rotate around that hole so you only need to loosen and tighten the top screw to adjust the mesh.
