Re: Any way to use standard radios with Mini RC?
No. It doesn't work with an OI, and the radio uses RS-422, not the RS-232 that the controller supports (via TTL serial port and program port). Plus the software isn't written for radio communications.

You might be able to rig something up with an off-the-shelf RS-232 radio set, and some programming, but you'll be on your own.
