The R2 firmware update is amazing

    I'v had an R2 for a couple months now, and I always thought it was really good. It never once dropped connection, and I really like the acceleration control. Makes the whole experiance better. The only complaint was that sometimes it would take a little while to connect.

    I just got my free replacement R2s for the LCD remotes that came with my boards, which have the battery and firmware updates Evolve announced.

    Long story short....the update works. After the initial pairing the remote connects to the board so quickly its actually connected before the screen even turns on. This wasn't just once, it's been every time.

    I’ve received mine after lcd repair as well. Finally it’s working properly!

    I agree, I had one of the first R2's and mine had a few intermittent loss of pairing issues but since the Firmware update last week it has been rock solid, Super fast connections and not a single dropout. So much better!
     
  4. I also have to fully agree with you. I had the same issues with repairing about every 5the time I'd turn my board on with the r2, never the lcd. But after emailing evolve about these issues and that my screen was going wonky occasionally, I was told there was an update coming and If I waited a week they'd send me a different remote with the upgrades as soon as they had one to send me. Of course I had to send the broken one back to them(they paid postage both ways). The new remote I got from them works perfectly. I think it connects faster than my lcd remote does and haven't had to make it repair yet. Picture is of my screen going wonky. When it did that the remote triggers and buttons still worked perfectly though. The 2 times I've dwelt with evolve for repairs (one was my fault, I told them that, but they replaced the broken remote free of charge anyway) I've had nothing but great things to say about them here in the usa. Alex in California has been good to me.
