Standard / Premium Edition

Production costs have unfortunately rocketed and we are all feeling the squeeze.

To help mitigate this, I created two editions for the Radio.

The only difference is the aesthetic look of the control knobs, including the Transponder / TCAS knob. The underlying construction, electronics and functions remain identical.

  • Premium Edition: for pilots who want to more closely replicate the look of a Boeing aircraft.

    • Custom-design, made to order knobs using SLS technology. The TCAS / Transponder is based on that of the Boeing 737.

  • Standard Edition: off-the-shelf knobs intended to keep the cost down as far as possible.

    • Black-and-white rotary knobs. Guitar-style knob for the Transponder / TCAS control.

Premium Edition

There is one functional difference: illuminated buttons replace the system selector switch.

Other changes include new buttons, new knobs (standard / premium options available), and other small details.
