I had an issue with the 6014FS. Had it in a SebArt Sukhoi 30e. Previously flown on XPS with no issues for about a dozen flights. Wanting to switch everything over to FAAST I tried out the new 2.4 set up. Lost the plane on the sixth flight with an apparent hold straight into the ground. I say apparent as upon impact, the radio equip was spread over several feet, all disconnected. I had a pretty good installation, I honestly don't feel that was the problem, but I am "open" to the possibility... though my gut says no.

Could not duplicate the problem, all equipment tested fine. Sent it back and they could not find the problem. For other reasons I actually have another receiver now, but I think I am going to wait and see how things shake up before I start putting this in my big stuff.

Not your problem, but just wanted to answer the question if anybody else was having issues with the Rx or system in general. My answer is yes, and I don't know why.

Good luck, hope you can figure out your problem.
