Just as I was complaining that there’s been fewer tech finds, along comes this. Sure, it’s over ten years old and pretty basic, and the price is just fair, when you consider shipping it’s good. It’s pretty much new in the box, with the original AA batteries (soon to be replaced by some USB AAs). There are two receivers in there too, and a USB dongle I believe for RC simulators.

I haven’t played with RC crap in a long time, I have an old quadcopter somewhere this will work with (I hope?).

      It’s probably a bit of column A, a bit of column B. The flight time of anything I have is far below the run time of the radio.

      OTOH, these USB batteries just … die. One nanosecond they’re at 1.5V, the next, not anymore.
