Hey guys, I've got a KO PROPO EX-1 UR, and it's got a bunch of features on it, here's the list straight from the site:

Steering Functions: Travel / Balance / Speed (1~2Way) / Curve / Center Trim / Sub Trim / Trim Rate / Reverse / Steering Monitor / Quick Steering
Throttle Functions: High Point / Brake / Curve / Punch / Speed (1~3Way) / Acceleration / Active Brake System (ABS) / Preset / Automatic Start / Sub Trim / Trim Rate / Reverse / Thorttle Monitor / Quick Throttle
Timer Functions: Lap Timer / Down Timer / Alarm / Pre-alarm / Lap Navigation / Stop Watch
Others: Auto Display / Idle Up / Position Display / Direct Set / Electrim / Digital Grip Dial / Battery Alarm / LCD Contrast / LCD Back Light / 30 Model Memory / Model Name / Model Select / Model Copy / Memory Recall / Memory Restore / Memory Reset / Channel Select (for use of channel 4) / Beeper Pitch Shift / Adjust Volume / Set Up / EEP ROM <3CH> 3CH Monitor / Configuration of 3CH <4CH> 4CH Monitor / Configuration of 4CH

My question is, how many people actually use all these, and if you do, what are the pros/cons of doing it? I kinda think I've overdoing it with this radio when all I really use is the EPA feature so I don't yank my carb out of my XB8.. I'd love to be able to get the most out of my radio, but am slightly unsure of how to do it.

My Nomadio Sensor has just about all those features. It also can be connected to the computer to adjust all settings and model memory functions. It has a speaker and a vibration motor (you can custom map vibration sequences and upload custom sounds to alert you to different events) and it also has a headphone jack (WTF?)

Like you I barely use anything besides EPA, trim, and the multiple model memories. I am interested in playing around with the ABS function though, that I could see being beneficial once you figure out how to tune it.

On my 4PK I use EPA, EXP, trims and memories. I have played with the ABS functions but since it is banned when racing here I don't use it. I've set the light colours (!!??) and vibration patterns

I occasionally use the servo speed adjustment to slow down some of my faster servos. I've never used the lap time functions on any radio I have owned with it on. Seems pointless to me when I have a transponder.

To me, the useful functions are EPA, EXP (especially for braking), trims, dual rates and model memory. Also number of channels! I bought the 4PK simply because I wanted to move from Spektrum to Futaba and I need 4 channels. Plus I couldn't say no to a multicoloured bar on the top

It's better to have and not need rather than to need and not have. Most high end radios have more features than is actually used on an a daily basis.

OK cool, just making sure I wasnt the only one that didn't take full advantage of everything that the radio has to offer.

Idle up is a great feature that I use on my nitro cars, it helps prevent stalls when the engine is not yet up to temp. Just dial it in a little at a time initially so you don't idle up and start at WOT. Curve and punch will help you control the car off the line.
