| Post subject: | Railblaza Starport Wobble |
Hey All, Installed a Starport which is very stable. The problem I'm having is that the inserted accessories don't fit snugly in the Starport. I've tried a 5" adjustable extension arm and two 6" extension arms. Seeing a lot of play. When I connect the extensions to each other, the fit is rock sold - no play at all. I had a Starport HD not yet installed which I tested - same findings. Not clear why the Starports would be less snug than the fittings between arms. I know the sliding locking mechanisms on the extensions vs. the Starports look different but appear to work in the same way. Appreciate any help. |

All my starports are snug as can be. In fact, after use and on the water they can get a bit too snug. |

Mine are all rock solid...as mentioned, maybe a bit too tight. I'd contact Railblaza and see about getting a replacement. Hopefully they'll do the right thing. If not be sure to let us know...customer service is a priority in the Hobie community. -RH |

I have the earlier version Starport, not the HD, and things are very tight. I wonder if the lower profile & design of the HD version is to blame. You might want to contact Railblaza for their input. Bummer.... |

All my Railblaza connectors are TOO tight. IF I can get them together, I can't get them apart most of the time. Stupid. Keith |

I ordered 4 Starports. Three of four look like the one on the left. These three fit loosely and have different markings ("R" logo on front, number "RB1030" on back. There is also a cutout on the backside behind the slide lock.   I measured the star width. The loose version is 26 mm while the snug version is 25 mm. Not sure what is happening here - maybe old stock. Will contact the retailer to return the three loose ones.
