Ya know, just in hind sight, in order to make any failsafe work, it has to be verified, but that's the sad thing, if I tell the TX point x is low throttle and point z is high throttle, why the he*& do I have to tell the program which way to failsafe to? Pure garbage, I'm going to get flamed for saying this but it's true. Plus, why the fu*^ is your 2.4 system going into failsafe at ranges that a 72 MHZ TX can do with the antenna down, maybe we all should start to think of these new radios as guns, treat them like they're loaded all the time, never let the assumption that technology will save or protect anything. I still fly 72 MHZ because of 2 reasons and I'm not alone, A) I don't trust anything that cycles through the frequency on a non-stop basis & B) It's too damn exspensive to outfit my whole fleet of 16 aircraft with receivers.
