Seems like alot of slop. Are you sure you have the correct dampers/feathering shaft? I know they both come in V1 and V2 so that might be a possible reason. If you are running a v1 feathering shaft with a v2 damper your probably going to encounter that problem. The collar I use is the copter X one which has a flange on the side of the spacer so that you cant see the dampers. Might be worth a try if you have the correct setup.
