Harry, help me out here. I need a transmitter and price really is not a big factor, however these Jedi radios are 10 to 15 times more expensive than the new Radiomasters. Largely the lines offer the same stuff; dual freq, frequency hopping, big color screen, ability to run scripts, bluetooth, wifi and many more common features. The far less expensive Radiomaster units include a bay for various radio modules and provide for the use of an Open Source operating system which are lacking on the Jedi line. What on earth makes this transmitter SO expensive?
You can ask the same of Powerbox and Futaba and JR/DFA. They are similar or even higher price than Jeti yet cannot do as much as Jeti. Some people like high quality of Mercedes/BMW/RollsRoyce, others prefer a cheap Dacia. They all have 4 wheels and an engine, so why doesn't everyone buy a Dacia? Expensive does not guarantee high quality, but cheap guarantees lower quality, corners have to be cut somewhere. I had a FRSKY because I loved OpenTx but the transmitter fell apart in people's hands, receiver aerials badly soldered to pcb, software updates weekly, and so on and on so I sold it and will not be fooled by cheap chinese sh1t again!
Happy new year Harry 👍

Thank you, I bet that even Jeti designers are not to your level of understanding of Jeti. My besy wishes for 2025.
