          I'm intrigued with new offerings from Flier and another Chinese company called Seal.

            I think Flier has their ducks in a row now. Any I have have been good and same for anyone I know with them.
            Throttle response is excellent as is efficiency

              Throttle response is my primary complaint with Swordfish. I got an MGM to try and fit in my little Zonda, but it won't fit under the deck. The Flier's are nice and low profile, probably my next choice

                This complaint comes up frequently on the site... I haven’t experienced the problem, but while scoping out some of the servo signals, I noticed if the servo frame rate gets over 20mS, that reaction time is effected. I have a radio that allows me to set up that parameter, usually under a global setup menu for the transmitter. I set mine to 15mS and all 3 of my SW ESC’s seem just fine. Maybe that’s the variance causing this issue...

                  I just received a ISDT BG8 Batt Go checker and it actually tests your PWM frame rate.

                              Nice, I know it adds time to the process, but would you consider taking photos along the way and posting a step by step guide on here? I would love to see the process, and possibly follow along. I am sure I would not be the only one interested either.

                                Any major differences between the Castle Edge 200 and Mamba XLX ? The edge is about $80 more in price. Or is that the price for the Heli/Air software?
