My guanlong caps keep on falling off during solves. Is this normal? Am I the only one?

Yeah, the caps on my Guanlong are pretty loose too. I think it's normal.

Fake YJ YuLong?
So i ordered a YJ Yulong off Amazon about two weeks ago. After lube it corner cuts and turns pretty well but i dont think its a YuLong because from pictures of real ones it looks like the color scheme is different and its a little different design. My biggest concern is theres no logo on the white cap. Has anyone seen this before? All feedback is appreciated.

Yj released 6 different version of the Yulong and 2 different logo types. The Yulongs that have been released so far are: Black plastic, White plastic, normal stickerless, bright stickerless with normal red, bright stickerless with pink, and transparent stickerless. As for the logos you could get any of the 6 plastic color versions with ether the normal Red ovaled Yj Logo or a logo with 4 different Chinese characters in a square format. Awhile back I did get a puzzle from amazon to test and it was the Raphael Magic cube witch is a cloned/rebranded stickerless Yulong that is the bright colors with normal red and it came with no logo.

That's actually a Dianshing stickerless 3x3
If it was a Guhong the edges would have a torpedo if it's a v2 if no torpedo then just a small hole like what is on the v1 guhong.

I recently bought an AoLong V2 off of Amazon and I don't think what I received was an AoLong. The box says AoLong and doesn't have Feliks on it. The cube has the wrong color scheme (red and orange are swapped) and the center stickers are octagonal. From the inside, it looks like a WeiLong V2, but I am not sure because I've never had a Moyu 3x3 before.
Pics: Go to the 1 star review with the picture. That is what I received.

It's hard to tell in the photo what the parts do look like. As for the Box Moyu has started to go away with not putting Feliks on the boxes anymore. Today I got a Moyu Pyraminx and Feliks was not on the box.

Weilong Popping
My Moyu Weilong V2 won't stop popping. I had 5 pops in a row, just now. If I tighten it at all, it becomes very sluggish. How can I fix this?

If you make a video I can see how the tensions are. It might be that the cube has some issues, but most likely it just needs some breaking in on the slightly tighter tensions.

Softer springs might help.

The tensions aren't very tight, but it gets slow if i tighten them at all. Also, the reverse corner cutting isnt very good, the corner catches on the center and locks up.... then pops.... it will cut about 40% of the time only

My Gans 357 is very slow. I dont if I have a defective one or not. I have tensioned it and lubed it and it is still very sluggish and it pops and corner-twists very often
. I checked the core, and springs, cleaned them out, relubed and it still is slow.
