I have Rev 4.5, it's pretty sensitive with these settings. I've had it for the past 3 years, drive like a maniac , and haven't gotten a speeding ticket since I've owned it.

Except if you have a Rev 4.5 that is the S7 platform and it will perform differently.
does " perform differently" mean not as good?

Not exactly, there is a debate on the platforms, do a search on S7 vs M4's are you will find a ton of stuff.Originally Posted by Wheelie
Basically the newer M4's are less sensitive to off axis radar, this is done to prevent falses from say K band door openers and such as you drive by them.
The S7's are more sensitive to off axis alerts, so you will get more falses.
Some people like the off axis to be more sensitive, the other thing is the older S7 have better ramp up (the way the alert goes from a weak to strong signal).
Most likely your X50 is the older S7 platform, which seems to pick up more falses so in turn you think it is more sensitive.
I can say the S7 is killer on Ka off axis esp 34.7. And that is real alerts not falses. Plus perfect ramp up.
I would test your RX65 for a few weeks and see how it is on real threats, then judge.
Definitely test your RX65 by itself without any other RD being turned on too. Just because you are able to run your V1 and X50 at the same time without any apparent problems does not mean that you may be able to run your RX65 and V1 or RX65 and X50 at the same time without problems.Originally Posted by Wheelie
I drive with a S7 and have done some testing of the newer M4 too. The M4 platforms quietness had me fooled too in the beginning when it didn't alert so much to automatic door openers. My S7 could pick up some high powered door openers which were located 400 feet away at almost 90 degrees, and facing away from the car. In a real world scenario, any cop sitting where that particular door opener was, is not a threat. The M4 filters out signals like those. When facing straight-on encounters on the highway, the two platforms have similar range.
