Report here as well.
I made a video yesterday during the disassemble, just a random talk late at night, but it's useful to actually show how it is made. The backlash it's really from what I would call harmonic drive, but I am not an expert. What surprise me is that there are other users from this forum with the same drive and they claim almost ZERO backlash, so can be that I got a faulty one with maybe components out of tollerance. It seems the mesh inside the gearbox has a play before lock in place.
