Re: Rutus VERSA on new software 6.14 NC

Re: Rutus VERSA on new software 6.14 NC
Chris.....Another interesting video; yet, I'm not sure what was to be gained by this video. , . , . , . , other than: small target detection. The controls/settings (when changed) responded in a very correct/standard fashion.
