I was trying to alter the preset rpm by using Airmasters setting program.
I did not give the wanted result, and in turn I asked Airmaster support.
The support guy sent me a new software update for the controller.
But.... Installing that resulting in immediately frying my controller. It got 
bricked, as they say. Completely damaged.
Asking Airmaster how that could happen their only answer: buy a new 
controller - . 
After receiving the new controller I opened the old one up and found two burned 
components inside. (and a terrible smell)
Well had no other choices, but to others: take care installing new software 
from Airmaster.
I have had my propeller and controller for many years, so despite the 
plane has just been completed and started flying a couple of years ago 
there is no warranty (fair enough). However I am wondering how many people, 
building experimental aircraft, do manage to get the propeller installed and 
test flown within the warranty period.
