Default RE: wireless buddy box

Iknew there would be discussion about it in RCUniverse, so I joined to give you my input. I recently purchased this device and installed it in a low wing trainer. I was excited enough that I video taped a little bit of the installation. I have since flown it with my 6 year old son with great success.

The product is simply awesome. Worked perfect right out of the box. I am buddy boxing a 2.4GHz Spektrum with a cheapo 72MHz Airtronics that my son uses, I didn't have to spend $350 for another Spektrum for my son which I am happy with, nether am I worrying about having a pricey TX on his destructive little hands... Furthermore, I am only giving him partial control of the airplane. I only grant him controls of the ailerons and elevator.

If I get my brother in law to come out with me, I will have him video tape our flight and I will add it here for y'all to see.

I have come to believe that this product should be given out by AMA to new members as part of the membership bundle!!!

I am very satisfied and look forward to droping it into the next aircraft for my son and I to venture into more advanced stuff....well worth the money....

This is like your first cordless drill or cordless phone...after you use it, you wonder how you ever got anything done with the cord in your way...

The link below is for the Wireless Buddy Box installation video I made posted in YouTube.
