Odd shadow problem, is it Unity or the FBX file?

Unity Engine

I have an FBX file I have imported into Unity 2017.1.0f3, but the shadow that is being cast from the top of it seems to be cut off half way along.

I have tried recalculating the normals in the Inspector, but it has made no difference. Can anyone suggest something I can try?

What are your lighting and shadow settings, and shadow bias setting?

Is that curly piece a separate mesh object - or attached to the curved bottom surface?

Everything is set to “Ultra” with a distance of about 15. The whole thing is a single mesh. The project is attached if you want to look for yourself. It’s driving me crazy!

Select your directional light in the scene, play with the bias settings.

It was the bias setting, it needed to be lower.

Thanks!
