I can't speak for Flex but in my experience unless you require and have
a lot of external programmers it can take just as many internal
resources to manage the external ones by the time you make sure they
follow your process, coding standards, etc.
Developing a large program that controls multiple products is a big
undertaking. Each evolution requires retesting on every platform. Fixing
a bug present on one model can break something on another. Then you fix
that problem. Then you retest on all. Each program feature you support
makes the test longer.

It's my understand that this has been in the works for about 5 years, is that

It has to be a little difficult trying to write one software program for 3
different (or is 4?) different products.
Perhaps it's time to farm some of it out - I'm sure that there are software
people that would be willing to help,
but then again you never know.
