Right now the two outer drives are dead even physically and after adjustment on the mechanical indicators but the smartcraft are about 1.5 off from each other (port reads 4.3 while
Stbd reads 5.8). I know the sensor is the black circle module under the mechanical indicator on the drive but how do I calibrate/ adjust to get it even. We found out on the last run we did that not having accurate indicators can lead to props hitting each other on triple setup if the center drive is trimmed too high (as the center drive goes up, it pulls the outer two towards it and the props hit each other. Don't want to have this happen again so I need very accurate drive indicators
