Hi Mr Chandra
Yes, 5900 is all you need to pay for the Tx/Rx combo, shipped via DTDC to your Doorstep.(or any other Economy courier of choice, which works best in your area). If you want to pick up personally, I would remove the 250g DTDC Metro charge from this amount.

After reconsidering the yardstick I use for others, I thought not to expect sale a no-loss condition. I did a panic buy, without analyzing my requirement and I pay for it.

Please note that:
1. The Mic is inbuilt on the Tx, so you cannot use the Audio channel for DIY telemetry
2. You have to buy CCD/CMOS Camera, Goggle/LCD/TV, power supply for Tx/Rx/Display separately. I can always help/guide here.
3. Though barely required, the one page document that came with the package is 70% in Chinese (Mandrin?)

If you are fine with the above, kindly confirm so that I can block the item and proceed with you with further details.

Johny does it have a cam , or you need to put one of your, can i put it in my easy star ? i'm in that's why the ask

i confirm to buy, PM sent, request u to PM ur details

Johny i withdraw , chandra all yours, i think we were typing simultaneously, i didn't see your post, until i posted mine

The Combi is blocked for Nchandra, subjected to completion of the transaction.
NChandra, thanks and please check your PM.

Gusty sir, thanks for showing the courtesy, it sets such standard and helps keeping the thread clean   !
Nchandra indeed PM'ed and posted before you. I was busy with a meeting so could not update. This Combi does not include the CCD Cam, which I bought separately from Hobby King (mid range- $30 one). And yes, it would definitely fit Easy* cockpit , but people usually put the Tx just above the wing, in the open.

Why everything is so costly in RC!! Cam/OSD/TxRx/Goggles/DC-DC-Booster/Extra antenna/Tracker... there is no end!!

Thanks to everyone!

Payment received. Thanks Nikhil.

Sale is over and I am locking the thread. I/Admin would open it only for Nikhil to provide closing review.
