I do hope that can be improved. While I tweak my setups for fast cyclic rates, I'm not willing to give up hover performance to get there which means I go through a lot of blades, paddles, and head settings before I get to what I like.
BlueGarry1, With respect to accuracy, there is a very real increase in accuracy out of the radio and also in the eCCPM calculations.
Since you are now using the radio in normal swash mode, the transmitter is able to deliver a more accurate representation of your stick inputs to the heli (the Cyclock to be exact). The Cyclock is then able to use these higher fidelity inputs to perform the eCCPM calculations. Since the Cyclock's output resolution is 4096, you end up with higher fidelity signals to the servos as well then what any transmitter on the market can transmit.
What am I trying to say... Think about how little of the full possible servo throw rotation is used for each input on an eCCPM setup. So out of a total of, say, 1024 steps of maximum radio system resolution you are only actually using, say, 128 steps of that for full aileron input to the two servos which move for an aileron input.
With Cyclock (and the V-Bar system) and the radio in normal swash mode, you can now get much closer to the full 1024 steps of radio system resolution for your aileron inputs. That increased stick-to-transmitter-output resolution is then used by the Cyclock (or V-Bar) for the eCCPM calculations.
