Xjet,

I have to disagree with you on the 'responsivness' feel factor of the XPS. In the end its one of the only things I miss from it... I can tell you I definately noticed the plane was way more responsive. My low rates became like my high and my high became ultra high. I cannot tell you why, but I know what I felt. Other guys at my club found the same thing with XPS. One guy was even flying an old warbird as a test bed and he even found this plane to be more responsive and twitchy.

I was using a JR 9XV2 with PCM RS77S Rx before the XPS. I then used the XPS module and 8Ch Rx. I changed nothing in the plane settings on the radio before I first flew with XPS and beleive me it was way more touchy and needed to be tuned down in the radio for the second flight. As I said. I dont know why, but I know what I felt. I also learnt what I didnt feel.... and that was a response to stick input, just before the Extra hit the ground, destroyed itself and became another XPS statistic!!...
