SG2100 reference point of "0" off by few degrees

So my three SG2100 arrived. All of them power up, move right and left and it communitcates with my C4K pro without any issues (the tests were conducted indoors, not on the roof yes ). The only problem is that only one of them was perfectly aligned to "0" for the reference, the other 2 were off by few degrees. It seems there is no way to fix it, other than opening SG2100 apart (bye bye warranty) and setting the reference point manualy, which I don't want to do. I've seen some posts on the web where people said the new motors from DMSI are like that and responses from DMSI were that in short "it is normal and it won't affect working of the motor including USALS". I'm just affraid that the motor will have arc messed-up when trying to catch far-east and far-west birds.

Does anybody had any problems when using SG2100 with messed-up reference point?

TIA
