Hi
I have been looking at them, but never got round to getting one, I seen the ones with new soft ware added, due to early problems, but looking on your link, it's been re'flashed,
good price 
ok for bench testing, save's your good radio from dust and damage.
I use their Bec units, Servo speed controllers, RC on/off switches , and all work great, never let me down yet.

Cheers Wiggy, personally I have always used Futaba, I especially like the 7C so don’t want to change unless it’s a good change

I have one, and am very pleased with the build quality.
It's a nice solid unit in your hands and can't be knocked for the price.
It is 8 channel PPM and 9 channel Pcm but only comes with an 8ch rx. I don't know the compatibility with other receivers, so in reality it is an 8 channel system.
The instructions aren't worth the paper they're written on and therefore google is your friend.
When I first switched it on I thought I had a doa unit as it came up with an error message and a continuous beep. A little googleling and I discovered that all the switches had to be in the down position before switching it on, and after that no problems.

Skippy has a version one, which he thinks is really good value.

Hi Mark
Spring = Out of my futaba "parts" box.
Arm = I used some strong black stryrene (same thickness) and the left gimbal arm to make a pattern for the right gimbal box. So sort of copied it.
A bit of trial and fit a couple of times and its centered perfectly and both feel the same.
The one time something I tried actually worked first time
