During the first flight video of the Typhoon, Wes said there was NO gyro in the plane for that flight. Though it's hard to really tell for sure, I count 7 leads plugged into that RX under the tape, with one empty one, so 8-ch. Their new 10-ch has pins on both ends of the unit. Their new 7-ch has all 7 pins in one end.. Lemon hasn't had an 8-ch RX for a long time now, so perhaps this is some new, upcoming Admiral effort that they don't want shown to the public just yet or it is a stabilized RX that was used in that flight and that too, isn't something they want exposed.

They were pretty clear early on that the timeline was very dependent on whether they made it on the boat by CNY or not. I was understanding about a timeline that had 6 weeks of range in it, but by now they know if they made it or not and it's time to narrow down that ETA for customers.

Since our RC Castle orders didn't ship on the original date of Jan. 13 and now rescheduled for Feb. 16, I think it's reasonable to say that regular production run won't be available for sending out till about that time, including those destined for the container ship. Then who knows how long they sit on the boat till it's full enough to sail? The one that FNRC got 2 days ago (with tail decal applied) was likely one of a few a "pre-production" units meant for reviewers for introductions. We may possibly see the Petrincic Bros. do a video soon of the one they'll get.

Rock on a delta happens. First flight he was fighting roll trim.

Most deltas do to some extent, even ones with a tail such as the A-4. I guess sometimes a gyro may help but I typically don't use gyros.
Watching recent assembly videos I am concerned about the unapplied tiger decals. If you look the tiger claw marks or stripes extend from the vertical stab to the fuselage and then the rear rondel is over one of the claw marks. I'm wondering when they say "...comes with basic decals pre-applied, however the tiger decals are UNAPPLIED." how they will do the claw marks and rondel.
