Moyu 4*4 WeiSu 魔域威速

So I understand it's not great out of the box but gets awesome after breaking in, right? Question to everyone who already has one... how bad are the pops? How often does yours pop, how loose/tight are your tensions? Are you being rough with the cube when it pops? I'd hate to have pops too often as I'm used to my cubes not popping plus big cubes aren't find to reassemble. But I don't think my turning style pops cubes much. Like, my Guhong v1 doesn't pop that much... maybe once every several hundred solves?
 
I've had two pops so far. I've had the cube for about 3 hours and to be honest the pops weren't too bad. One of the small internal pieces flew out and I was able to continue solving without it. The other was an edge piece and I was able to pop it back in no problem.

I also have fairly loose tensioning.
 
Did an average of 50 on my shengshou v5 on Sunday 1:21.44 did an average of 50 on my weisu yesterday 1:12.07. I also dropped my PB Ao5 from 1:13.31 to 1:04.13. The pops aren't that bad if you don't have it too loose.
 
I think it needs a lot of solving to make it good. I'm borrowing Daniel Sheppard's to try break it in. Most of my solves are crappy, but I have had a few low-40s and a sub-40.

No offense, but an average of 1:21 leaves a lot of room for improvement (I'm not "fast" either) so the difference of 9 seconds in average is likely due to you doing 100 solves, rather than the Moyu being THAT MUCH better.

I have neither ShenShou nor Moyu unfortunately, I wonder if I would be consistently sub 1 with one. My Dayan/MF8 is old, has horrible stickers and super sluggish at the moment, I've had it since they were first released. Thanks to all the reviews in this thread I will probably order a Moyu once they're in at some online stores.
 
I broke mine in, stickered it and lubed it. Cant tension it as one of the screws came in broken, someone probably has forced the screws in with a power tool. I get worse times than with my florian modded shengshou; it just doesnt flow. I suppose I'd need looser tensions.

1 out of 6 screws on both of my WeiSus came slightly stripped :(.
 
I think I finally figured out why I dont like this; The outer layer of my WeiSu does not flow at all. Oddly enough after popping one small inner piece out it started to feel better. With 2 pieces out it still works just fine. I kinda feel like the inner mechanism is too crowded which causes a lot of friction.

Uh huh... mod for the weisu? Take out the little internal pieces. If they're not there, they can't pop, right?
