I'm not sure what we have here from Spektrum as I'm not finding any documentation. So you plug your receiver programmer cable into your PC and then can use the Windows GUI to program your model. Sounds like a great idea but remember this is just V1.0.0.0. It may not be all that usefull for the 350 QX at this time.
