you can get them for a lot less, I got a pair for £10 each, they have went up to 20 since then. I have just converted it to mavlink using a rp2040

I very much support this funding request because this will allow us to test and merge this PR and resolve an outstanding watchdog level issue discovered during Rover-4.5 testing (search for “LD06” in the consolidated 4.5 issues list).
