500 3D mixer arms

Building 500 3D
Found thread for mistake in manual for mixer arms.
Flipped mixer arms around with short side to blade grip and now alignment is good.
Are the 4 holes in the picture right?
Or should we use the upper-outer hole as in the 600 ??
This would make the mixer arms almost level at half stick.
Are their any other mistakes in manual ?
Thanks in Advance

Mark can you send me a link to the mistake in the manual. I just built my kit last night and want to see if my new manual is also wrong.

I'm using the lower, inner-most hole as per manual. Only the orientation is drawn wrong, not the hole position.

... and watch the screws provided... one of mine sheared off as I was removing it to fix my reversed arms.

Ahhhh I guess I need to go back and change that. Thanks for the post, the Freak is awesome!

Yes for sure on Page 11 diagram @1 is in correct, diagram 2 however is correct. It has been noted for future releases of the manual. I myself even made this mistake, my apoligies for not making a sticky on this earlier, it is done now however. :)
