Interesting, I have never had that issue with the hard dampers. And teh reason they are that hard is because of how that head works. They are pretty much solid so that you cna feel the helicopter better. With softer dampers, it will have a more tame feeling, but may make the helicopter drift slightly.

I had a real issue with notchiness when I replaced the head on my 450 Pro V2. It turnes out that Align changed the feathering shaft and bearing set up when they came out with the 450L. The thrust bearings go in the blade holder before the roller bearing now. I had to upgrade the feathering shaft and thrust bearings. After that, the notchiness went away. Don't know if this has anything to do with your issue or not. Just thought I'd mention it.

That bird looked great mart! Now, you just need to stick a canopy on it and get to a bigger place to fly and you will be all set!
