I'm not certain if you fully understand FBW, but in this instance: it was NOT. In any event, the OP, and I hate to mention it, I said the same a couple of years ago on this very forum....long before the Monday morning quarterbacks took up the cause.
The Max is a POS, pure and simple...a great A/C company would have ditched it and and moved on to more elegant designs.
For AA it's certainly about money.
Realistically, it probably won't crash so much anymore, although I guess only time will tell....
