    Default What is BUDS2?

    In a casual conversation the other day about the BUD's system, the term BUDS2 was mentioned. Is this a later or older update?

    The early Spyders used BUDS as their diagnostic/management program; my understanding is that somewhere around 2017/2018 (anyone got a better date/model change??) the diagnostic/maintenance system needed more, so BUDS2 came out and is necessary to properly manage Spders/Rykers from that date/model on; but (again, still only my understanding of it) the older machines can still use BUDS!

    Spyders 2008 thru 2016 use BUDS
    Spyders 2016 thru current use BUDS2 (yes there is overlap on 2016 either will work)
