Did you download the screen shot I uploaded?

RE: Pattern Feature - Variational

I'm not sure what it is that you're trying to do. What is it about your various results that was not what you were expecting?

(OP)
John,

Consider the lengths of the 3 patterned slots (from my first image), they're longer, or rather, they're positioned differently,

RE: Pattern Feature - Variational

Sorry, I missed that detail banghead

Have you fixed the issue yet? Dimensioning to a tangency, when 'Patterning' the feature may be the issue, as you've already alluded to.

With that in mind, I've created an alternative using sketches only. To change the number of slots, simply edit the expression 'Number_of_Slots'.
