RE: GSF-150 gear failssafe problems??
I read Todd's addendum on this device and followed the instructions. I am using a hitec 225mg servo on the bvm retract valve for my ultra bandit. I find the retract servo does twitch a bit. I am wondering if its safe to fly?

Guys I have tested the following sequencers:
JMP Sequencer
Bee Rc Sequencer (jet legend)
Assan Sequencer
Jet tronics Sequencer
It glitches on all of them, including doing the fix, I tested this on a Futaba RX setup as well as Spectrum same problems.
Here is the only time it works: If you have a setup without gear doors, Then it works fine ONLY with an electronic valve.
Basically the GSF-150 is a limited use unit; it has been discontinued, and if you have one, too bad for you.

I just got this unit from andy and I can double with rcpete said, it works perfect, plus has controls for the canopy!
however it is 200.00 but you don't need to buy a sequencer as it is built in.
I got mine from Andy Kane.

I have had strange thing happen after using my gsf-150 now for several months. My gear is cycling up and down on it's own during my flight. I finally put the gear down for fear of losing all my air. On the ground I still had 95 lbs of air left.
I am using a Jetronics valve for gear and my transmitter for the sequencer (Jeti).
I think it can only be one of two culprits. the Jetronics valve or the gsf-150.
Anyone had a problem like this? With all the talk about the gsf-150 problem I am highly suspicious of it.
