Well just got back from Flroida jets and here is my user report. I was using the eagle tree and it did ok but not great. So got the new 3E. After 8 flights of fighting with it and trying to program it after each flight and it still acting very bad in the air I pulled it out. The cortex dealer was nice enough to trade me a cortex to try out and from the first flight it was good to go and completely love it!
So not sure if I just had a defective unit or something but I was better off with no gyro or the eagle tree gyro over the 3E.
