So after receiving my Loop 1080 in the mail, I messed around with the adjustable gap for a bit. After some time, I noticed that the gap wasn’t moving, and that the key was very loose in the key-slot. I would really appreciate some help as to fixing this or replacing it. Thanks.

I have had a problem with this too. My screw head stripped out. 😢

Yeah, it sounds like either the axle key or the screw head on the yo-yo has stripped.
