I've used the flypad to fly the Mambo and Bebop 2 for a long time without any issues. I just picked up an original skycontroller and can't get it to connect to the Mambo. I'll be getting a SC3 in on Thursday and I'll try to connect with it as well. However, I suspect it won't work either! Not sure why it works so well with the Flypad but won't work with the Skycontrollers...
