MKIV MASTER CONTROLLER

Summary

The MKIV master controller V2 is a successor of the first version. It features 5 ports for your peripherals, one of which can be used for flashing (in version V2A). A separate flashing cable is no longer needed. This version of the controller is compatible with all peripherals including MKIII ones, except for VRMax collective head, which was replaced with the VRMax pedestal which does its job much better.
