7e uses and limitations

I've managed to acquire a 7e and am now wondering what to do with it (my Devo 10 is my main tx).

I've read in a few threads that the 7e is approaching its limits as to what Deviation can do or be installed on it.

How bad are the limitations? Is it worth me modding the 7e as I've done my 10? Add the 3 way switches and range mod? Keep it as my spare? Switch it to mode 1 for flying planes (my planes as DSMX)?

Thoughts and suggestions greatly appreciated

Thanks.

Thanks.

Do not expect too much of DSMX & Devo7e, even with the range mod.....300m

1. E.g ...with the newest NB, the pa seems not to draw as much currend as with the Devo protocol. On a test, the voltage showed the same output for 100 μW and 100 mW........which is not possible. After a cold start the voltage decreased but not as much as with Devo.
2.Telemetry can not be switched off.
Due to bad weather I am not able to do a range test outdoors and compare it to my older release with telemetry off.

BTW , for all who have read this .. www.deviationtx.com/forum/protocol-devel...ith-telemetry-on-off
...the SCP now binds again with telemetry on and off.

Thanks guys.

I think I'll mod it and use it as a spare for flying my mini / micro / nano quads.

That's what i've done with my 6S. The small size makes it preferable for indoor flying, and the missing switches/dials make it suitable for flying larger, more advanced aircraft. And that color screen is unreadable in sunlight, but that won't be an issue with the 7E.
