| Dust in the tail box is not a good thing!
Shimming it so that it is smooth, without backlash is how it should be adjusted. If there is excessive wear on the gears, I would play it safe and replace them.
When you say that you can move it 1 cm, are you talking about holding the rotorhead and moving the tail rotor? When I inspect mine, I remove the red plug and insert a non-damaging (toothpick) tool inside to hold one of the gears stationary while I gently rotate the output shaft to check for backlash.
The supplement is an alternative set up to the 3D settings. The stable setting should be per the original manual, as I understand it.
