I'm using the Robart electric tail gear and actuator and the plastic housing has about a 1/32" gap. After several cycles, the gap has remained the same so I think it will be OK?

Received my Corsair today. All looks good with a lot of shipping boxes to dispose. Very few wrinkles with the exception of the elevators. Scale detail is impressive. Can't wait to get started.
