True, Derek. I missed the $9.99 boat myself. I picked the two that I have up from Ebay for $22. There are a LOT of these things out there.

They are a little thick and clunky (the transmitters), but are solid and well made. The 5th and 6th channels are on the bottom and consist of high/low buttons that can be used trigger-like with no mods.
