I expect the prices for the Commander to be over $100 but have no details on shipping. You could get a good 6 channel on Ebay RCU for much less then that.
I was ready to wait and get the Commander BUT at $100, wow ! Is it just a basic model or does it incorporate the dongle ? I would understand if it's the same as the interface cable version with dongle.
However, if AFPD interface version sells for $169 @ OMP and with commander at $209, how can the buddy box cost that much more ?
$169-$209=$40.
I guess I and others need more information on EXACTLY what this Commander system is to be. I figured I would get the interface version first and get a back up/primary box to fly planes without resorting to my TX's. I guess I may have to resort to older USB/Serial TX's.
