Default Trackstar Corner Weight scale system

I picked up this system from Hobbyking as it seemed like a good deal. First, I noticed the quality seemed pretty nice for these scales. You can scroll through a few menus showing the different weight percentages. When I scaled my oval racer first, I thought I must have done something wrong because the cross weight seemed abnormal. It turns out, the logic in the unit is backwards and shows cross weight to be the RR and LF, instead of LR and RF. Their manual explains it correctly, but the unit is simply wrong. I made a video to show hobbyking and see if the firmware was updatable or something, but the just refunded me and called it a day. In the end, it still works, you just have to remember to subtract it from 100 to get the actual cross weight. Just figured I would put this out there so others may be warned. Hopefully they will fix it in the future as it can be really confusing.
