Yes, the funding it all is something that will be a bit of a surprise to my wife.. best to take the bandaid off quickly.. order the stuff you want up front as upgrades are much harder to get past the CFO...
I went for the Taranis as well, and its a bit overwhelming at first to be honest. Once you learn all the terms and how to do things its much better than anything else I have used like the Spektrum DX6i I now use as my simulator controller... there is a whole lot of information on the opentx...
