Guys,

To add to what Fernando said above I have been flying the 260 lots in the last few weeks and the EQ10 is by far and away the best power board option I have ever used and thats a fair statement given I have used nearly all of them. Emcotec is the only one I think I have not tried.

The advantages with these units are many,
1. 10 fully adjustable channels, (end points, neutral etc)
2. Reverse polarity and short circuit protection.
3. Weight. Nothing else in this class comes even close.
4. Easy to install and program. You dont need an additional programming cable or anything with this setup, its all on the board. No laptop, no controller.
5. Accuracy or very fine steps in when setting up ganged servos. Ok harder to explain but compared to my other boards the steps on the servo with each click of a button are so fine you can hardly see the servo arm move. Plus the fact that when you setup ganged servos you only setup off the master servo, the other servos in the chain go into float while to set each individual one up. That gets rid of any compound errors that can occur if all your servos are driven at the same time while you setup your neutrals and end points.

Last but not least it takes a lot of the hard work away from your radio programming. Case in study. I had to change out the RX for the first flight as Fernando set the plane up with his radio and frequency. All I had to do was set all the values in my radio to 100% and swap the Rx over. Bingo it was done, no setting up anything else. Then of course program in my dual rates and expo and ten minutes later we were flying. Needless to say there was and is a lot of fine tuning to do on the transmitter but the mechanics of the system is all on board your plane.

Now I have swapped out the Rx again for the SPEKTRUM system and it was a walk in the park. All I need to do is play with my dual rates , expo and differencial and its done.

Gents I am a very open minded guy when it comes to this hobby but I promise you that this is the best power management system I have ever used. Its clean, simple and honest. And the price is right. What else could you ever ask for.

I am not bagging any of the other systems here because they all work and thats a fact but they dont hold a candle to the EQ10 for overall functionality.

10 out of 10.
