I got my UMX Gee Bee R2 from E-flite in the other day. It looks really good, finally a scale Gee Bee, thanks to AS3X Smile

I read about it on RCGroups.com, looks real cool. A little out of my price range, though. Smile

Call Horizon and see what they can do. I just called and they are sending me a new board, as it was well beyond the service bulletin.
