    i like the way these guys preach safety. I know people get tired of hearing about it and you don't read or hear about prop accidents, perhaps everyone is just lucky or they do indeed practice safe habits around the world. But I do not mind at all that they preach it, it's really awesome that they do.

    ALSO! A current owner of this radio here. Please make sure you don't hit and hold "save/cancel" while on the Display page. It will move and cycle everything. Including your throttle. I've had it catch me almost twice now. Just be mindful of it and it's a great radio. Use it in my Avanti S V2 currently

    Stank you so much for the info, I used to build mine with balsa and monocote about 44 years ago while n the Air Force. My radio was a futaba and fortunatly wheel and dealing got it in a swap and to fix it and a servo was about $50. I had a piper cub and a P-51 mustang with 6' wing span. The gas motors were tricky as they would snap bank and pop your finger, wow it hurt. Being retired cuts budget way down and had to get rid of all of it years ago as children were more important but it's ok. Love the hobby., I have a Horizon Hobby Sport Cub S with safe technology which blows me away. I love the as I call it the oh crap button. Thanks again guys!

One suggestion (yes, I bench tested with the prop on and I’m glad you mentioned taking the prop off) when my radio boots and plane is plugged in the transmitter displays a message to move all switches to the up position. I am reversing my throttle idle switch so that up is off. Great video! I learned at least two things I did wrong.

    I need help! I have a Flysky I6X transmitter to control my tracked inspection bot. But when I first switch the transmitter on, it beeps and gives me this message: "!!WARNING!! Place all switches in their up position and lower the throttle" Sometimes I just bump my left toggle switch, channel 3, and it stops the warning and gives me full control. But all too often, it doesn't matter how many switches and toggles I move around, it just keeps beeping and will not give me control. What is it doing and how do I get it to stop? I have a simple tank chassis with a light and camera gimble on it. It's not like I need a safety switch to start with. Can you help me?
