You're talking indoor freeflight, so doesn't matter how new you are, welcome.

All that is necessary (as you mentioned) is good feedback from the rubber, not zero friction, IMO. For example, on my Wilder winder, I can get the thing to crank just using the weight of the crank handle, which is only 1.5" long. That's plenty good.
