V2's have a number of advantages over non-V2's, not all of which are important if you're using an external control, but are generally more important if you're not using an external controller.
<----I disagree. The pre Version 2's didn't have the improved PA design and it was known for PA failures. Not extremely common but they happened. Sure, you could retrofit the new PA board into a pre V2 but it wasn't all that common to do. The new PA is essentially bulletproof.
