Loaded the V1.3 update yesterday on a 550DFC and a 500L All very straight forward with no problems. At the field now having put a couple of packs through both and I'm impressed with how they both performed. So well done the Spirit team!

Tried this on my TRex 700N earlier hoping for an improvement but still can't get the Nitro governor to work.
