Hi Bob,
I think the EC2 program panel problem pretty much explains why your EC2 loan did not do any good - the Ec2 module apparently was not the problem but the program control panel - which I presume Buly used when he tried your EC2.

Hi Buly,
I think this is really good news. Much better to have a reason for the
problem and in this case, it cropped up at a very good time (NOT
flying).
Sorry for the late reply, but I'm trying to get thru 230 Flyrotary
messages waiting for me after a 10 day vacation. I've read about 200
of them and have 85 to go. They just keep coming in. :)

Thanks Tracy. I sent it because had a feeling that there could be a
problem also. It was modified since the canopy was pushing down on
the connector.
