Making’ sure this is normal?…..🥺

Rafa, if you're talking about the sound when slewing then yes it's normal. Nothing to worry about. It is louder than 10u, but at least for me, it hasn't been a problem.

Yes, it's normal.
High speed servo motors and precision spur reduction gears will be audibly noisy when slewing, but will have very smooth tracking action. No sudden jumps of many arc seconds that can happen in belt drive reduction.
If you want to reduce the sound you can slow the slew speed down.
