Moyo AoLong v2: Screws Pushing Up on the Center Caps

[JasonDL13]

Hi,

I seem to be having a problem with what I think is the "MoYo AoLong v2" cube. I don't have any record of buying this, so I don't know. But I'm sure it's an AoLong (maybe a v3).

So I have the cube on a such a loose setting that I have an issue with the center caps not being all the way in now, the green center cap seems seems to fall out very frequently.

Is there anything I can do about this other then tensioning the cube tighter? I tried this but I don't like the way that it turns. I was thinking maybe shaving the screw or center cap down, I just want to know if anyone know more about this then I do, and tell me if I should live with it or what I should do.

Thanks!

Tightening seems like the best solution to your problem. Besides having such a loose tensions can cause a lot of lockups and pops.

I had the same issue, put a piece of paper on top of the centers than stick the cap back on and rip the rest of the paper off. Issue fixed.

Mines really loose and that's just how I like it. I do get a few pops but like one in 250 solves, not worth a worse cube IMO.

Can you send us a picture of your center caps? That would help us identify your cube. My cube had weird center caps and I found out that I had an original batch aolong v2. My cube also had problems with center cap popping at loose tensions.

Thanks for the response. But can you explain it a little bit more? Do I put the paper between the center piece and the center cap?

i think that's what he is saying. either way, it probably takes a minute to test his solution.

I'm having the same problem with my Aolong. The screw pushes the cap off if you loosen it. Tightening it causes the cube to be really sluggish and it's hard to turn the cube. Here's a picture: http://imgur.com/GBS05Fj
