err what test?

There was some seriously good fun had at DMHC today,plenty of banter and **** taking,a few good photos and a nice video of a Knight 3d and a 600N in the capable hands of Ade and Trev,the thwarted theft of Geegars Vibe 90 and Richie with a bit of putty,

In my simple view, if we are NOT seeing 'copters falling outta the sky when using SS then the evidence shows it must work! So I wouldn't worry about how many Txs are on or how far away I get - until the first incident. Then I worry. If need be. I can understand the necessarlily obsessive devotion to 'bullet proof' RF links for competition guys - simply because there are crowds of vulnerable spectators waiting to be heli fodder, but the continued safe track record of the SS technology in daily use speaks for itself.
Now the Spektrum Rx low voltage re-boot issue is potentially a more serious concern, which I believe Spektrum should really look into right away...........

As for me, well I'm staying with my trusty 9C super on 35, UNTIL the Spektrum DSX9 comes out. Then I just gotta get me one.........
