We have released  builder's alert #1 for the KX3.

Some builders have reported the four 2-56 flat head screws used to 
attach the battery holders in the KX3 do not seat smoothly against the 
plastic holder. The heads protrude upward and may strike and short one 
or more batteries to ground. This is usually because the builder used 
screws from the Hardware Spares parts bag which were too long, or 
because the correct screws were not firmly seated flush with the battery 
holder.
