"without regard to rather this was or was not a rip off of Darkith's work" does anyone have info on some sort of follow on production of RCCommand's battle system by anyone? Perhaps Darkith could reclaim it.

This is not to start a cat fight so let's not get into the weeds. i sort of liked a couple of features of the RC Command unit such as the modded "apple" and an attractive price for a basic system, so continuation, with appropriate recondition for the the inventor, would be a good thing IMHO.
