The Tornado H920 ships with the ST24 personal ground station, which is a 24-channel all-in-one transmitter powered by an Android operating system and features a 7-inch touchscreen that displays telemetry data and a built-in flight simulator. It also includes the Proaction grip for mounting the gimbal into a handheld grip and working as a fully functional handheld gimbal.
