Me too, had one from day one, It broke, sent it back and never saw it again,
been over 6 years now, lots of "oh yes we are sending you one" but nothing
ever came of it.
I am using an RDAS now, had no problems, but would have likes to see how the
control was?

I've had a control since the month it came out... but somehow it was DOA and
I just never got it fixed. That was like 5 years ago or so..

If you have a flight computer you need no addtional electronics. As
an example Control has 4 chanels, you can use two for dual deploy, one
for airstarts and the last for 'chute release with no addtional
systems.
