skorp,

i agree, but no matter how you cut it, i had no control of the model.
i have sent Bill Baxter a link to this thread as well as emailed Hobbico............but i think we all know that i am SOL on this and they will just try to sweep this under the rug............i haven't posted this incident on the other forums yet so as to give Bill a chance to let me know what is going to happen on this, but i won't wait a whole lot longer as i have also PM'ed Bill with regards to some Futaba analog servos that rotate to an extreme position on boot up of which he has not replied either.

i love Futaba radios, but enough is enough................there are some quirks in their system, and it's not right for modelers who are Futaba users since day one, let alone new users, to do all the Beta testing at our expense.........................scariest part is, what if someone had been injured?
