Something else I did as soon as it came out of the box: measured and recorded the lengths of all pushrods/linkages
More than once it helped me get back to point zero after my "adjustments" really screwed things up!

I too recorded the link lengths on the original B450 3D and later on the B450X. However, I did not find this as helpful since the swash was not leveled out of the box. I use the Blade BLH1690A swash leveling tool to get the swash at the appropriate height, and then finish off leveling the swash with the Trueblood tripod leveler.

I agree, the Trueblood swash leveler is a great tool

there is a difference from the plastic to the carbon piece on the bottom. The plastic piece has a nice little Curve on the bottom that makes a snug fit
anyone else have this problem and how to fix it

CF one is designed to go with the aluminum upgrade parts.

I solved the problem ... but you are right..
so if you don't want to use the Aluminum part which is....
Aluminum Horizontal Stab Fin Mount: B450 [BLH1662A]

then take a piece of RC Fuel tube and put it between the CF Fin and the tail boom and it works perfect
