Free delivery and returns on eligible orders. Review: It seems to be incomplete. I can use it on the RP2040 board, but I cannot use it standalone, that little board shown in the pictures is not present, so it cannot be connected to USB. Review: As the other review mentioned, the transmitters are flawed- I bought two and both failed. After extensive testing and troubleshooting both in the firmware and hardware side, I am confident waveshare had a bad hardware run. I hope this is just a batch issue and they fix it soon because the functionality would otherwise be excellent. Other than the transmitters (which is a make or break function) the system is really brilliantly designed. The ribbon cable is a great slave saving application and the USB adapter makes it extremely convenient to program. The transmitter is embedded to a Raspberry Pi Pico chip so this thing is very small. There are not many alternatives in such a compact form factor at this level of convenience. It would be five stars if the transmitters didn’t have a fatal malfunction. As such, these chips are useless until they fix the manufacturing issue. ## Features - HF version: 850 ~ 930MHz frequency, Applicable to Europe, North America and Oceania.
