Hi Elbert, Hope you are well my friend. On the MTD compare to the "AQ"..right now not much I can do but I do know as more "AQ"'s get out there some will be in the hands of MTD owners.
Places I would not dare take the "AQ" would be spots that are extremely trashy. Once we get the smaller 8 inch coil that may change at some spots.
Here is a list I did for

Stay tuned for more. Remember I am not a tester...but like everyone out there excited to see how it does....As I go I will have more video's/ information and I promises it won't be at a snails pace. From what I have tested so far..the Discriminate mods..Tones...Mute you loose about 2 to 3 inch's on large targets, the small the target the less you loose. Not sure on the volcanic mod

How much I like the "AQ"? I've asked Rick to put me on the list..for another. I've had "Mine" three weeks now, 25 plus hours "SUBMERGED" with no problems with the connectors or battery. Just keep them clean and silicon-ed lightly, And all will be fine.... 3.5 hour battery not long enough? Just buy another, or make one for it like I'm doing. Once I'

Looks like your getting your workout. For me that part of the hunt is the most important. If I were to lax at home for sure I would be fat..Thanks for sharing.

Those who have there doubt's wait...how simple can that be.
I know I sure did not get all jacked out of shape because someone else has one, I took what I had and made it work for me.

I see several changes from the "AQ" we seen at the show Russia earlier this year. Compared to some of the new pictures LE JAG posted...........And I like the New Carbon Fiber look.........Interesting...Volcanic sand, I see a Battery indicator? Reject, from iron mask, ATS from SAT Speed and a few other changes. ....then some of the numbers are high lighted in blue? Maybe a suggested set

NO USB charger........
Charges thru the right 4 pin M-8 bulkhead connections..This port is.......Power from the battery / Audio to the end of the shaft then that goes thru the shaft to the control head.
More then likely a slow charge ...One reason I'll go Li-Po in the future...I can charge my Excaliburs Li-Po... less then 20 minutes..
