Should my flyer be able to move back and forth?

YES There is no problem with the flyer moving front to back. We want some movement so the bearings do not bind. If you are concerned with the amount of movement your flyer has, please send us photos of video of the movement to help@spinolution.com so we can confirm it is within normal range.

If it moves too much, we will send you free washers to limit the range of movement. You might need to pay shipping.
