They used the same picture on the separate listings for the control grip,
motor, and M15v pack... I find that a little mis-leading at the least. The
description doesn't specifically say anything but control grip, but neither
does it point out (as most usually do) "other <items> not included". This is
where a good 'dumb' question comes in handy.
