It be about same size of the IBU2.

The big board in the picture is a developer board to make easy to make connections etc for doing tests.

Difficult to say with final production costs could vary, software licence agreements fees etc (the software is issued free with IBU3 but it still needs producing by a third party).

I can say it will be aimed at been a better package than the IBU2 Pro & TPA so expect the price to reflect that.

In addition to the wiring test feature there is also an easier setup sequence with the radio transmitter.

Basically doesn’t matter what mode your radio is in, and the IBU3 to receiver channels can be in any order.

Initiate radio setup.

Move any stick (only 1) fully forward and backwards. This is now set as your throttle.
Move another stick fully both directions. This is now set to steering.
And so on.
