To add further insult I was sent a used hand contoller because it was known to work. PM me if you like to know who the agent is. I like to think this may have been an isolated instance however ....

G'day Steve,
This is probably irelavent now but what you have explained above is exactly what happened to me with my hand controller. Didn't work, got told I needed more practice, still didn't work, sent it back at my expense got a second hand one back, lol.
A few years later purchased two Maxon motors, got second hand ones (no box, just bubble wrap, motors were dirty and dusty; at least wipe them and pretend they are new).
I'm reading this thread because I am currently modifying my G11. I haven't tested it yet but I think the Maxon motor is the culprit.
