Gordon,
I also see your point, but we as "good responsible modelers" (grin) arent supposed to forget things like that!

I see it as an easy way for people without failsafe (a regular FM radio) to have that option. Or, guys like me who dont use a PCM harness and have to reprogram it every time I turn off the radio, thats a blessing.

Same arguements were out and about when computer radios came out, guys were saying "you will fly it on the wrong model memory" but we all came to terms with that and many other issues.

By the way, I picked mine up from a hobby shop that had one as a demo for $100 off. That was a steal!
