I have two so far. One functions flawlessly as an 8 channel, the other is inconsistent on that 8th set of pins. That's OK since it is sold as a 7 channel. They don't seem to mind WATER. Screwing around, blustery day, lost control and crashed in the middle of the pond. Over and hour till the varying winds finally blew the thing close enough to shore to get a hold of the plane. Airframe total loss, ESC shot, motor packed full of algae but shows signs of life, LiPo OK, servos and this receiver worked flawless after drying out. Only damage to receiver was the paper wrapping.
