Did the maiden flight in a 60cc Seagull Nemesis the other day with “out of the box” settings and was blown away by how stable and true the plane flew. I’m not sure how to make it better but I know it has potential. Great job 👏🏼

If hardly anyone could use the 2X or 4X AS3X sensitivity multiplier, why the heck did you increase the gain of the algorithm to where you needed to add 0.25X and 0.5X? Is there really a need for 5 sensitivity ranges? I don't like having to turn my gains down from what I've been using or change the multiplier from 1X to 0.5X. With the AR636, I could set the heading hold gain to the same value as the AS3X gain and not have any problems. With the Smart receivers, I might set the AS3X gain to 40%, but I can't use more than 10% for heading hold. And then there's Stop Lock and Stop Release. I don't like having two more adjustments for each axis in every flight mode. I wish you'd release a 3.x to 2.x conversion firmware so we can go back to what we had. The only good thing you've done since the AR636 is change the default SAFE gain from 18 to 35. I like for my gains to be between 30 and 50 percent with the gain sensitivity set to 1X. I used to say that the Spektrum engineers did everything the way I'd do it, but I don't feel that way anymore.

Good in depth information.

You should talk about the DX6C since the DX6R was a flop
