| Yeah, I broke the blade controller mine too but luckily I ordered a few. Some of the other guys on rcg are saying that if you fly over grass nothing breaks. | |

| Its the same business model in software. In V1 you get 70% of the functionality. You have to pay again and again and again to get the other 30% in V2, 3, 4, etc. | |

| I think the expo does work but perhaps some or most of the servos have such bad resolution that it doesn't make any difference.
Part of me suspects the throttle curve adjustment only works if you p ... |

| Apparently (from rcgroups) the servo casings can seperate, causing them to wtitch and have bad resolution. If you press the casings together tightly and apply sticky tape they work a lot better. | |
