Dave,

I can't speak for the actual physical Rotors, but the Green Heron RT-20 and
RT-21 both work fine with "Logger32" Logging program using the DCU-1
protocol. I'm sure other logging programs also would support them.

I am using a RotorEZ controller on my system. It also uses the DCU-1
Protocol. It is a computer interface card for installation in several
different manual control boxes. Mine is installed in an old CDE Ham II
control box that I modified to control my Prop Pitch drive motor.

Just some other options.
