Never had an issue with them. Pretty inexpensive upgrade for reliability IMO.pazi88 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 02, 2023 10:21 amI referring to the quality of the mega chip on some of the cheap boards, I have had some that have underperformed, not the firmware.NickZ wrote: ↑Thu Nov 02, 2023 12:20 am Mega2560 are not all the same, i've had good performing boards and bad performing boards, I have definitely had mega2560 boards that couldn't do the 60-2 trigger at high rpmYou sure? The race condition problem in older FW was totally random and it was sometimes almost unnoticeable and in some cases it caused severe running problems.
Im not saying every mega2560 is going to have a problem, but the quality of board DOES make a difference.
