In general, I'm a bit disappointed with my Losmandy GM-8. Backlash I simply can't get rid of, needing to tweak gears, that kind of thing really disappoints and annoys me. But I still manage to get photo's using with little problem/work-around.
The comment "is not stiff enough" is really odd, I'd say the thing is rock solid for it's weight capacity. Doesn't budget in a strong wind. Wouldn't know if there's flexure issues, but I haven't noticed problems caused by flexure.
Roger.
