    European Spektrum (and most other) Tx's come 'hamstringed' to lower RF power output limits as per European RF exposure regulations. US transmitters have higher power. To be honest it's never proved to be a problem but it would be nice to have the ability to turn up the RF power to US region...

    Official Precision Aerobatics Ultimate AMR Thread

    It's a bit quiet over here in the PA forum so I thought I'd start a thread on the Ultimate AMR. I've had my AMR for nearly two years now it's a quirky little bipe which you will love or hate. Yeah like all bipes it's got some coupling issues and has a few little build details like impossible...
