XYZ Sensors Prices July 12, 2009
Reviewer: Jordi Munoz from Riverside, CA United States  
Hello,

Well FMA XY is $43, the Z sensor was
another $25, and the cable wasn't included. So that was at least $75
with cables. Also, we have to pay a royalty to FMA and don't buy parts
at the same volume they do. Plus, of course, FMA doesn't make the Z at
all anymore.

You might also want to note that our sensors are less than the
Paparazzi ones ($125:

and the same price as AttoPilot. Or you can make your own, just buy the 6 thermophiles for about hundred dollars from Digikey (http://search.digikey.com/scripts/DkSearch/dksus.dll?Detail&name=MLX90247ESF-DSA-ND). So basically these are tied for the
cheapest full XYZ sensor solution in the world.

However, if people want to wait for FMA to bring the XYs back in
stock, people can always buy two of them and use one as a Z sensor and
save a few dollars. (just ignore one wire).
