So it's unlikely that they have any resources to modify the software for RC car use.

It's funny, most of the controller coming out of China identify themselves as a Jeti-18 (regardless of the type/size of the controller) when connected to Jeti's field programmer. Several others ID themselves as Schultze. I've yet to see a Chinese or Taiwanese controller that has decent software that was not stolen from another company.
That sucks. So did Jeti and Schulze forgot the protect their software ? This company promised me they were going to do it and now it is basically tha, a promise. I might just get the controllers done with what ever software they have and use them is a car with mechanical brakes .

No, they didn't forget to protect their software. The ATMega software protection can be compromised.

Good thing the quality of Jeti and Schulze are top notch compared to the Chinese version.
