Hi, I had the v3 firmware loaded anyway so today I had some nice weather and tested it out. On my Align 550X, with the tilted skids, I did have to do the CTRL-ALT-U thing to get the rescue mode to work with a level swash first. However, it flew perfectly and testing rescue from a hover upright and inverted worked as it should.

2nd flight also all good on a Goblin 570 Sport. I didn't have to recalibrate this one, I've replaced the G10 frames with the CF ones and these don't add the forward tilt.

I have tested v 3.0 on a compass exo,

The problem with the helicopter is that you have to switch it on upsidedown, and then put it on the skids.

In rescue, the Ts is crooked,

If I leave the helicopter then about 20 sec. the Ts in rescue straight and in flight is also no problem

Interesting that we're all seeing such different results with v3. I've tested 4 helis with good results now on v3. I am going to continue to treat rescue with suspicion, though, until we hear something official on it.

Just as feedback for someone - and Thomas ;-)
I used V3 on Spirit Pro and didn't find any problem on:
- TREX 600 - Align BL Servos
- EXO 500 - MKS Servos
- Oxy2 Lynx Servos
kind regards

Small update - I just had 2 flights on my 700X. One the first one, whilst spooling up, it did look like it was going to slowly tip over to the right. I just took off and the flight was ok. I also tested rescue, and it did appear to slant towards the left slightly.

2nd flight was ok again...
