I only tried a couple of flights afterwards before going to work but it did not "feel" the same. It's like the expo was gone. I have some expo programmed in my transmitter rather than using it for each model in Phoenix.

I will try to experiment some more later but based on those flights I was not so impressed with the new version.
found the same thing, no expo flying heli was unlimited power and stupid fast.. When flying a jet, it always auto leveled to! WEIRD!! i know for a fact my jet won't auto level LOL

That's what some people in the thread I linked were speculating. Would not be a surprise if they did. Sounds like it was about "Alpha" quality.

Did some checking around, looks like Phoenix pulled 4r and 5 from being able to be downloaded... Looks like they need to do a lot of patching...

I tried that first, r does not show as an option. I went to the phoenix website as they have downloads for doing the updates manually. They have nothing past q listed...
