Guys...

I have 6 of these in a 40% bird that hasn't flown yet. Winter is still here in the NE. This is what I have learned:

Yes you still can program them.... to a point.

You can set:

Deadband, reverse them, EPA and center. I would avoid doing a reset at this time until Hitec gets their act together.

As far as the centers & EPA:

What you program into the servo initially is not what it is going to be once you hook it back up to the RX. The end points are WAY off. You just have to fiddle around and program more travel into the servo to get the desired amount of travel that you need. Same with the center.

After you get used to the 'hunt & peck' method, its a no brainer. Just an inconvenience.

Overall I would still recommend these servos. Still a great bang for the buck, even though their flawed. Once the bug is taken care of ( I would assume a flash of the software in the programmer) the 5995 will be in a league of its own. In price and performance.

Just my observations.....
