And they won't say exactly what will be in the next release. Bugs in heli and sailplane setups. Requires purchase of a separate box to update firmware. Website in Korea that has the updates has had frequent outages. You CANNOT download the firmware and install it later. You MUST be hooked to the internet and download it real time. My perception is that they are more enthralled with telemetry (that was a year late in being released) than in getting the basic system up to snuff. Oh, and as far as I know, they still haven't released the 72mHz module promised last fall, if that is of any concern.</font></span></span></div>
