If it works without cogging, I'd say leave it alone. Some people claimed their cogging issues were solved by the update.. mine ran fine when I got it, and started cogging after I updated. I'm not sure it was really related to the update since it reset the configuration, and adjusting the start up voltage fixed it, but still..

You can always use the computer conrol panel to revert back to an older version of the software. Mine has every version listed that's been used if I'm not mistaken.

Yeah I don't think you can. Mine has the older versions listed like Cajun says, but I wasn't able to get them to load. I may not have been doing it right though.

Not sure why they told you that, but it's not true. I just tried my Mamba 25 and it reverted back to the old software no problem. Once it did it, it even asked me if I wanted to update it with the latest firmware, so I know it took. I tried one of my Mamba Max ESCs and it worked the same way, did the same thing. I took it back as far as 3 versions of the firmware, then updated it. Software reversion is also a fixed talked about on the forums if you update and something goes wrong.

Don't Do IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just kidding, do what you feel is right, sometimes not having the newest thing out is a good thing as it may have bugs in the firmware, give it a while!!
