Default Honesty why 10x?

I have a problem with the increasing complexity of the
flight programs the jet flyers are programming in there
radios.

Is it all necessary ?

If the priorities, are safe, full proof flying then all these
complex programs are only making it more complex to and harder
fly the jets.

How many times have people got in trouble because of
Duel Rates. I think duel rates totally unnecessary and here is why.

On the first flight of the plane, check the roll rate, check the elev
if you don't like the way it feels, land the plane and change it.
Once you set the plane up the way you like it, you can begin
to learn how to fly the plane. With time you will know it like
the back of your hand and will anticipate its reaction to your inputs.
Now why would you want to change all your servo
travels and have a totally different plane.

All these plane are fully capable of flying 200mph and 35mph
with out changing troughs. That is what expo is far.

I also understand this is a hobby and none of it is really
necessary. If the owner enjoys programming his radio, that
is great. That is what its all about. I am just saying that
if the main priority is safe, full proof flying, then keep it simple.

We all know that when we fly in front of a croud, our IQ
drops about 40 points. We don't need more switches to
remember.
