Default 14SG mechanical problem with RD

The right dial (RD) on my 14SG binds when I go to the 2 O'clock position. Around this area it is very hard to turn and
I was wondering if the problem is with the off centering (installation) of the potentiometer or the knob itself?

I haven't removed the knob yet to investigate but it is annoying that I received this with a problem

There is also 1 screw missing from each of the gimbal assemblies (top center). I doubt that this would be a cost saving issue but rather
someone just forgot to put them in? Maybe I can get Hobbico to send me them?

Great transmitter otherwise!

Wouldn't it be great if we could reset the timers without turning off the transmitter when the dial is locked? Maybe by pressing one of the silver buttons (once or twice rapidly)?
