I'd expect the next version of the FlightDeck to be much more user friendly and feature packed.

The button is easily accessable and sticks out far enough that I can press it with my finger, not recessed like the reset button. I have talked to a couple of other guys and they have to press the button too so I think that this is a design "feature", not a malfunctioning harness. It may be different now, the units that I know about are all 2007 and 2008 models.

 


Does the button on your left lever hood work for other functions? Pressing the left hood button and the left button on the back of the computer should do exactly the same thing.

yeah once you learn it it is no big deal but it is annoying the first time when you need to discover how to make it work,
mine was installed during the winter, so you needed to make it ready to start before fitting your gloves, the button is too small for gloves,

The bike is currently in storage as it is my summer ride. If I remember correctly, pushing and holding the button for five seconds switches the menu to the virtual cadence and the max values. Just pushing the button breifly starts and stops the stopwatch feature. It does not start it.
