RE: Spektrum DX-7

Ouch... almost! Dont think Ive heard of anyone doing that on the DX7, but fumbling around with controls early in the learning game is probably very common. The only way to learn where stuff is would...

RE: Spektrum DX-7

I always thought that they had cured the problem when they told those that couldn't figure it out themselves to use larger batteries on setups that obviously needed them. I guess I should be more...

RE: Spektrum DX-7
