VexPro VersaBlock center-wheel drop

Hi all,

We recently got our drivetrain running (w/ WCP DS Gearbox, 6WD, VersaBlocks & VersaChassis).

We have our center VersaBlock with the curved section facing upward, and the outer VersaBlocks with the flat face upward in order to drop the center wheel.

However, the drop in the center wheel is very concerning. It's more than 1/16th. Closer to an 1/8th. About 0.1" from what we've measured.

The drivetrain is much more noticeably tippier than the kit bot.

Is this bad? Is it good? Should we be worried? Personally, it feels bad to us.. doesn't feel right.

Hoping someone can elaborate.
