Got a 50:1 instead of a 100:1... Seller asked me to return the product and proceed to an exchange. Shipping costs are unacceptable on my side, and they can't authorize local deposit and pickup in my country's warehouse, then i'm fucked, i'm keeping the 50:1 unit, not paying for a return for their mistake. Unit works fine so far, 0.05 mm runout on the cartridge, which is to be expected considering the price, you can make it better if you know what you're doing and retune the unit correctly. Motor works ok, nothing fancy. Very very little backlash if any. Overall, product is good.
Unit is almost backlash free, which is awesome,and you can have lots of power with original motors, even more if you replace them, however runout is around 0.05, which means you'll need to regrind the faceplate, there's nothing you can do by setting up screws or whatever, can be used for light and not very precise work out of the box , if not, be prepared to finish the product yourself, there's a reason this cost only a fraction of a true 4th axis unit.
