1299  for  a   wifi  controlled (300 foot range)  isn't  what I call   'value'..

I mean,   running  70 mph  inside a    300 foot   circle  will get old pretty fast..

Adding the extender,  or going with a  'real'  controller  only   kicks the price UP..    All the apps  that can be  run off the  phone  would be  a bonus though!

Don't get me wrong,   it's  a pretty cool   platform!      But  I've learned  that   we can build  or modify   existing  platforms  to  do this  or even more  for  a lot less.  Ya,  time is money,  but  the learning curve is  invaluable too.
