If the accuracy mattered that much, you wouldn't have a free floating motor lol
All you're guaranteeing is that the pinion is in the proper range of adjustment.
This isn't like a PTW where the motor is at an exact fixed height and the shimming legitimately needs to be perfect.
As long as you're within the adjustment range of the bevel, all that's left is to adjust the motor height. If you really wanted to be exact about it, the motor wouldn't be free to adjust up and down and it especially wouldn't have any twisting play (like on a V2), and you'd properly shim the armatures in the motors.
Even if the bevel is shimmed out of adjustment range of the motor; if it was too close the sound is distinctly grindy, you can't miss it unless you're deaf. And if it was too far away, you wouldn't have excessive current draw at all, you'd just have a whining or a stripped pinion.

And AB or not, the lipo shouldn't be getting warm, and the fet shouldn't be tripping after just 15 shots. That's systema magnum kind of motor problems.
