Fom an 'armchair racer' perspective i was trawling the interwebs and found latency figures for the FrSky Combo. It didn't look too great and wondered how other people who had converted their radios felt with the performance?

When I did my KO ultra 3 I thought it was great, it's certainly way better than the spektrum DSM modules feel. Then I tried a Sanwa, and couldn't go back to the frsky. Are you coming from 40meg? how do you think it feels? in my opinion they are fine, better than spektrum, and if you balance cost to convert vs cost of a Sanwa, then it's a no brainier if cost is an important consideration.
