Do you think prices are still going to drop or should i just press the buy button on one of the above?!
I personally have the Yun-1 and the rctimer - so one a lot more than you're price range, and one a lot less. I found the rctimer with their own martinez board just didn't work nicely on 7.4v, it really is a different story with 3s however. I didn't manage to adjust the settings yet - it just wouldn't write them no matter what I did. I need to give it another try really. It tends to over or under compensate - it doesn't remain perfectly flat.
The Yun-1 is magic.

The alexmos board which the yun-1 uses is a better board - but on it's own probably costs £150?!? The Martinez boards are all much cheaper than this.

For my helicopter gimbal (a big one) and my hand-held rig, I will use the 3-axis alexmos board that's just starting to be released. But it aint cheap, I think I paid around £200 for it.

I'm a Gimbaholic.
