Hi Tilman,

If you want to go the Lisa path then you can get a Lisa/M at thequadshot.com. I just received mine a few days ago from them and have it up and running. I am not using it for fixedwings though. For that I have TWOG and Yapa which I can thoroughly recommend, especially the later. Both of these you can pick up from ppzuav.com, though almost everything seems to be out of stock at the moment. 

thequadshot.com does not seem to sell them at the moment either. But I guess they will once they got stock again.
I guess I will just wait if either joby or quadshot come back with offers. Hopefully soon...

Regarding the Overo, if weight or space isn't too much of an issue then you probably could get a tobi board (or another smaller expansion board for the overo) and connect it to the Lisa/M via SPI etc. and it might work the same way. A little messier but should go and gives you access to more of the overo ports depending on what you want to do.

I was thinking long the same lines.

An alternative solution for your Spektrum/UART/Telemetry concerns would be to use the standard receiver module and go via the PPM decoder board.

Terribly anachronistic. But at least proven stuff. :)
Will do that if the Lisa situation does not get better soon.

Thanks for the replies.
