I think Spider's out of business now, remember reading something about it...

Hmmm That would be my luck....

These might be a suitable replacement..

This question has probably been asked before, but I couldn't find it.

Will the Co pilot ll work on a Trex with the new DFC head if the Co pilot is used in place of the Align 3GX for stabilization, with a separate gyro for the tail?

The 3GX is the FBL controller and you need to wired to a separate Rx..

Rx>>>>>CPII>>>>>3GX>>>>>>servos

Can't use CP2 in place of a FBL controller, they do different things. What Night means is you can use it with 3GX, but only if you go with a separate Rx, the signal flow being Rx --> CP2 --> 3GX --> servos

Good explanation about why you need both stabilization and FBL system, here:

It refers to flymentor, but the same exact principle applies to CP2.
