Thanks for the nice words
Joe, there is currently no way to let the display stay on one screen during "engine run", it switches between two screens, basically showing the temperature, battery voltage, pump voltage, set/actual RPM and fuel left/consumed.

I find it quite nice to be able to at least see the temperature, battery voltage and the restfuel/consumption, I tend not to look at the set/actual RPM anyway, but if I understand you correctly, you are interested in the set/actual RPM.

I made the two screens as a compromise, there is a ton of data to show during runtime, but I cut it down to what I (and looking at the feedback from a great bunch of guys on this thread: http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_9525286/tm.htm) thought would be the absolutely minimum, and that would "cover" two screens. As it switches between them fairly quick I think/hope that it is no big problem to wait the 2 1/2 second between switches ?

It is much worse in Idle mode (engine stopped), there is a bunch of screens, but there you (typically) have more time to wait for the data you are interested in....

Regarding the cable, its correct, it is a bit "sturdy", it is some that Sandor gets mounted, but I think that they are quite good, and much better than many flat ribbon types. Again it's a compromise.
The solder pads are made BIG so that it should be easy for people to change/shorten the cable

Hope it all makes sense

PS:

Joe, you write that the screens change when you move the throttle back and forth, maybe I misunderstand you, but that is not how they work, the display will change between the two screens at a fixed interval, and this has nothing to do with the throttle position
