I converted my 550 officially to flybarless. It flies good..however when I pik the heli up to carry it from the button head..it feels as if the main shaft as a tiny bit of play...probably less then a millimitter..should I ad another spacer or is it ok

The guy who mentored me in building and flying RC heli used to say " a mm is a mile on a rc heli". I would try to fix it if I were you. Its only one little spacer that needs to be added. But more than likely you collar is not low enough. Place your thumb on the main gear and index finger on the collar, squeeze and tighten collar set screw.
