RE: 12X throttle ratchet?
I thought the smooth feel would be alot different but after using the 12x compared to the ratcheting on the 10x it really isn't that bad, in fact I think I prefer it now.

I like the smoothness. I like to think of the throttle in a turbine as another surface of control! On approach its what keeps your airplane from pointing down! 
You wouldn't want a ratcheting elevator, well maybe some would. Oh well, I guess we're all just different.

Why bother with proportional controls.....I guess if ya just turn the throttle on or off it doesn't matter. I like it but...I am a rotor head as well as jet puke.

If you send it in they will install the part for free, if you order to part they will charge you for the part. After using the TX for a little while I like it better without the detents.

I have seen very few people go back to a ratchet after flying with smooth for a little while.

Smooth throttles are for any motorized transportation device requiring fine control of power. Detents are for giant ships with engine rooms.
