The current NB4 firmware update is done through the micro USB port as well, which works just fine. Which, BTW, if you haven't updated your firmware, I highly recommend it. Boot times and model switch times are greatly improved - really handy if you race more than one class and need to switch vehicles quickly.

Super good enough translation. You'd think they'd have better marketing and technical translators - or at least have a native proof read it first - heck, I'd do it for a free radio.

Hopefully that phone mount and rear handle thing are removable. Part of the reason I like the NB4 is it doesn't look like a 13 year old designed it, like every other surface radio :barf:

The phone mount is completely removeable and comes with a plate that replaces the phone mount if you want to keep the protection around the screen.

Ugh, still has micro USB. I was really hoping for a switch to USB C.

I think I'm just going to stick with my NB4, as long as I can get the ESC mixing working properly for my MOA. I hope the thumb lever for the knob will be available separately for the regular NB4.

Read through the manual. It's really good, much better than the NB4 manual. Actually goes over how to use sensors, channel expanders, and talks about a new receiver with a built in gyro.

The mount is removable. Manual talks about it.

I'll take micro over C anyday. It's a much more robust port, and the cables wear out first.

They’re removable!
 

They’re removable! Any word on price? Only found listings from dubious resellers.

Been looking...but, so far, I'm coming up empty-handed. If anyone finds these listed for purchase from a REPUTABLE seller (preferably an online retailer, NOT an 'individual' seller), PLEASE post the link(s) for everyone.

$390 on Banggood. Upped the price quite a bit but still kinda reasonable. I'm too new to post links.

twice the value of nb4.

Thanks, and no worries...got ya covered.

Yikes, 2x the cost is a little too steep. I was hoping $250-300 max.

I guess at least it doesn't come with that horrible FGR4 receiver.

I like the case it comes with, but 400$, really flysky?

It'd be nice if it was more compact closer to the size of the radio - it looks like the same cheap giant case every brand slaps their name on. I'm not tossing my Tx into the back of a pickup - I just need a little protection for it in my hauler crate.

I carry it in black noble box, good enough for me.
