Rumors: New FlySky/UndergroundFPV Dark Knight/Nirvana transmitter

Rumors say, that a new gamepad style FlySky compatible transmitter is comming soon!  These rumours/teasers are comming from the two sources: FlySky and UndergroundFPV as it is a result of team work from both companies. My guess that Underground FPV is designing the transmitter/outside, while the Flysky is making the electronics/inside. The final name is unknown, Nirvana, but this transmitter has a codename of Dark Knight. 

This transmitter will have internal Flysky TX module and will work on Flysky AFHDS 2A protocol. Underground FPV also give us a clue that this TX will have a bay for external modules (Crossfire, etc). Transmitter will be equiped with digital hall effect gimbals. 

Some of the prototypes photos show big color LCD.  Internal operating system is promised to be OpenTX.  It will have voice alerts so it must have SD Card slot somewhere for voice packs.

Looks like there will be a few versions to choose between with a price about 179$.

There is also a video on FB showing the prototype. Designers had  thumblers and pinchers in mind – this TX fits both:

EDIT 2018-03-07: New picture of the prototype. Hmm….
