But what could they do that makes it special? Part of the reason I bought weatronic was for the data logging in challenging metal coated models but to some extent Jeti now does that. Jeti has two tx modules with I believe 4 tx aerials sending to up to 4 aerials in the model compared to wea's 2 sending to 2. The wea transmission system doesn't seem anything special.
It is hinted that the BAT60 will have 22 channels but my Frsky Taranis has 32 and can do multi protocol which wea can't so 22channels is nothing special.
Jeti has programmable rx programmed from tx so the BAT60 is following not leading on that.
When I handled the BAT60 at jetpower I felt that many switches were out if reach and overall ergonomics were moderate to poor.
What is left? If the software beats a multiplex 4000 or OpenTx I will be amazed though happy but that won't be a game changer. When we were chatting with Ralf and I asked him could it do this could it do that, he seemed unaware of just what fantastic features are available on the latest competitor sets.
Wea is just taking so long that they are being overtaken by much faster more agile competitors and I fear that when the BAT60 is finally on sale we won't see anything that isn't already available on other brands at lower prices. The throttle/brake stick is nice but it isn't going to set the model world on fire!
