I may not be as smart as some, but I figure if the guy who designed it and
makes it tells me NOT to do something, then maybe he knows what he is
talking about. I'm just one of those silly people who thinks the
manufacturer knows more about his product than I do.
And if this were true you'd balance your models the way the plan showed, have all the throws the same way they recommended. Wouldn't add reinforcements, would only use the motor, servos, radio, pushrods, clevis' etc.
and we wouldn't have any new developments from our suppliers if others didn't experiment with their products.
How many guys brought out the 6 channel on their micro 5 channel RX's... or went to a rubber ducky, or use a different RX brand than the TX?
Okay if someone burns up a battery pack 'trying' a setting different than the instructions say, then what? Life as we know it ends on earth? Nope we burn up a pack and get to cut some more lawns to get a new one. :-)
Who cares why instructions say to do or not do things...its a boring topic and when all is said and done more will have been said than done.
We are hobbiest, and part of the hobby is trying, experimenting and testing.
Instead of the 'DON"T DO IT!" why not, hey if you try it let the rest of us know how it worked out for you?... or "The mfgr says not to do it , so I'm going to contact them to find out their opinion since it is working well for you."....
Both of those are more fun than don't step outside the lines :-)
