Not sure I like the vibration alarms. First time trying it on the bench, knew it was coming and still almost dropped the radio.Team Synergy/Rail, Team Scorpion, YS Engines, VelTye |

I've used the vibrating timer on my 18MZ and got used to it. It took a little getting used to, but I've found it to be an excellent backup to the audible alarm. |

Not sure I like the vibration alarms. First time trying it on the bench, knew it was coming and still almost dropped the radio. I had the same experience after getting a Spektrum DX8. I got used to using a vibrating alarm very quickly. I also use a neck strap so there was never a chance of dropping the TX when surprised by the vibrating alarm.I wouldn't even think of not using the vibrating alarm in my 18MZ. Now the voice alarms, I really don't need them for flying a helicopter since there are only two or three conditions that would set off the alarm in my setup - flight condition hold and timer (using telemetry for low voltage, a third alarm is created). I guess telemetry alarms are the best use for voice alarms in a helicopter.On airplanes where various conditions could exist such as dual rates for various control surfaces, flaps, idle down, multiple flight conditions for various maneuvers, etc., the use of voice alarms are very valuable. |

At my field you can't hear voice or beeps due to the noise - unless you have an earphone. But then I like to hear the other noise as it gets close to me ! You know, so I can get out of the way. |

I also wanted to activate the vibration alarm on the timer and going to page 2, pushing the different vib modes 1,2,3 or 4 does not do anything and the audible alarm is still active. Anything else at play here ?I have the 2.1-2.0 update.Life is meaningful flying helis. |

Latest update is 2.4 - Encoder 2.0... You might want to try that.I have asked this on other forums, but wanted to see if you guys are experiencing a constant noise from the speaker? Not buzzing or RF feedback... It's almost like the volume is full on the speaker constantly. Not sure how else to explain it. Noticeable in a quiet environment.By the responses I have heard, this seems to be normal... But wanted to check in here.MarkFlight Teams: Synergy; OptiPower; Scorpion; Morgan Fuel |

The most recent version is 2.4.1 which is the same as version 2.4.0, but has a small telemetry bug fix. |

I don't believe Ripmax would be providing it if it wasn't official. |
