antenna mod
Enjoying the radio but still dislike the 2.4 antenna sticking out the back.
Between heats and races it really is a pain to have to stand the radio up and worry about it falling over, or removing the module, of laying the radio down carefully on a towel to prevent potentially damaging the antenna.
I remember reading somewhere about antenna lenght inside the radio being critical. Anyone able to comment with certainty if a mod like this can be done with the EURUS and its specific new 2.4 module?

This would make trackside life alot easier.

I'm not going to say that the antenna on the side is the best thing since sliced bread but, I don't mind it so much. The fact that the EX-10 has a much wider base than my old EX-5 UR makes it nicer to set down. I also invested in a lanyard so I don't have to put it down when I'm doing simple tasks like putting my body on or whatnot. I like the fact that the 2.4Ghz module is just that, a module. This will allow for upgrading down the road.

need some help
Has anyone experience data loss on their radio? Or a corrupt profile? It happened to me again today. This is only the second time that it has happened since I got the radio, but it is very disturbing.
Here are the basics of what happens. I switch to model a from model b using the know and buttons. I set the radio down and then turn the car on. But nothing is working correctly. I pick the radio up and look through the settings. Weird things are in the throttle menu. The only setting I ever change in the throttle menu is "Reverse". and that is only if I am using an ESC that needs it. But the throttle trim and subtrim with be set to 50% forward. The throttle speed will have all kinds of weird numbers. for throw and return.
Then in the steering menu, the speed will be set turn was at 50% and then some odd values and return was set to 5% and also had weird values. I am sure there was a few other oddities.
Now the really odd thing is that if I just adjust all the setting back to normal, the radio still does not act correctly. Throttle seems to work ok, but I usually will have to reset the speed control. But steering just acts like there is a dead spot in the wheel. Usually the as soon as the wheel on the radio is turned the wheels on the car move. But no matter what I change in the steering menu it would not work.
So reset that memory spot. Then everything worked like it should. Well except for the fact that I had to put all my trims back in and reverse the throttle again.
I just want to know if anyone else has had this happen. I have had it happen like I said twice. The first time I thought maybe my kids had been messing with it. But this time I know for sure, because I had been running two vehicle testing some setup out and then one just went crazy. Another note is that the other time this happened it was on a different memory slot. I only have 6 models stored right now in the radio.
I wonder if the radio's memory is bad.

For KO America, our service repairs will stop from today until Aug 3rd as I am leaving for the IFMAR world championships in Houston tomorrow. Unless you will be in the Houston area then I can perform the repair there.
