Why?
If you live in Scandinavia, North America or any other place where temperature goes below freezing you know that good, warm gloves and stick-flying with radio is not a very good combination.
Yes, a radio mitt does help. But the fact is bare hands do rarely warm the inside nearly enough.
History
To this need a few years back a Finnish guy called Xen developed a product that was thoroughly tested by Finnish RC-heli community for several years. Simply put, no development bugs anymore, component-choices are solid and guaranteed to work.
Since Xen is more of a development-guy and I’m more of a tinkering and soldering-guy we joined forces.
WarmTX from RC-Thoughts powered by Xen is here!
