Starscream is one of the users that has this controller (or had, since he didn't know about the existence of this converter needed for the phoenix) i thought he mentioned about buying another one and try it again.
I do have the HV110 and pix adapter. It has worked well so far but really, I've been waiting for the slipperential V2 to come out to really put it to the test. Right now my gearing options are limited to one gear ratio since my NEU 1515 2Y F motor barely fits on my motor mount and t-maxx 3.3 tranny. The pixstick adapter works pretty well with my Sensor radio but does have a little quirk. Once you start using the throttle, the throttle signal seems to get stuck (just barely, so its very very slow and will stop when brakes are applied). This quirk may not occur with other radio's but I'm not sure. This is tolerable for now but if the MMM will handle 6S, I'll be getting one ASAP.
