Is there a major difference or is this an incremental update?

Well, I would need one for each model and one as a spare....

Maybe Jeff will give me a volume discount, say 1-2% off....

Nahh these would be hard to fit on the MCPX and V120 so maybe I only need 7-8....

I think I'll bide my time for a while.

My 3 x SK-720's are running well along with 2 x SK-GPS's now.

My helis feel great and my DS-16 should be arriving any time now, so I really don't see the point with adding too many new variables at the moment.

That said, I think the LED that came with my second SK-GPS is a dud. It isn't anywhere near as intense as the first one. Both are running off of helis with identical servos and JIVE BEC circuits.

Are you sure you have a good power port connection for the LED? I noticed on mine that the LED would light up fine when I originally set it up on my 720, but it just looked like a normal LED. It wasn't until I switched to a different port on the 720 that it came alive like its supposed to be.

I'll play with it some and see if that helps any.

This weekend looks shot, so it may be next week before I get out again.

Got my preorder in today. Does anyone know if you can just take the setup file from the 540 and dump it into the 720BE and be good to go? Or, do you need to do a complete new setup when changing from the 540 to the 720BE?

From what I understand you can just dump it in.
