Default RX upgrade?

I am currently using the Futaba R156 RX that came with my MX 400 Pro. I have always had glitching issues even after using an RF fliter, is it time for an upgrade? Who's upgraded the RX and noticed less glitching?

I got the same receiver with the Fut 6EXH on my MX450 and it glitched so bad just sitting on the bench that it never made it into the heli. I put it and the transmitter back in their boxes and put them away in the closet where they will likely sit until the universe explodes. Total waste of money IMO. Went to a DX7 and haven't had a radio problem since.

jeffk - How do you have your DX7 setup for the MX450? Any recommendations would be appreciated. I am in the process of completing construction on mine.

Pls advise.

My setup is pretty simple. Since I'm running a GY241 gyro, I didn't worry about the gyro settings, all the pitch and throttle curves were set up per the Finless video recommendations.

If you'd like the exact settings I can do that but the radio's not in front of me at the moment. Did you have a question about a specific setting? Feel free to PM me.

Chagrin Falls, eh? I'm oin Brunswick. Where do you fly?
