I have now completed over 75 on off cycles of my BR6000 the last 15 back down at 5V and still been unable to lose the bind. On a couple of occasions I thought it had happend when it failed to connect in 5 mins but after a couple more power cycles it was again connecting. These test are all done on a stabalised power supply with no large motors switching so it may be that dips in the power rails cause these problems. The time taken to connect means I will not be running my DX6i with a BR6000. As far as ants are concerned the failsafe on the throttle channel which we use for our weapon is enough. Having said I have modified the software in my speed controller to give failsafe on all three channels used. On Binding I not only set the throttle stick fully back but also full back trim then in normal operation set the trim back to centre. This means the failsafe pulse width of the throttle is out side the normal range and can be detected and used to shut down the two drive channels. Hope this is of some help.
