Is there a speedlite/flash unit with built in radio remote for Nikon?

I would like to remotely control my off camera flash with my on camera flash. I am not looking for a separate remote unit like packetwizard. I would like the remote built in the flash itself. Canon has the 600EX-RT with a remote in the flash. You can filly control the off camera flash with the on camera Canon flash. Currently Nikon doesn't have a flash like this however I am wondering whether there is any Chinese made flash unit with features similar to the Canon 600EX-RT.

There is the YongNuo YN-600EX-RT slated for release soon, along with the YongNuo YN-E3-RT transmitter, both for Canon. Seeing as Nikon doesn't have a radio triggered flash system yet, I don't see why YongNuo wouldn't jump at the chance to release a Nikon version.

Here is the latest on the YN offerings:

I think you are right! YongNuo should come out with a Nikon system for sure.

The Phottix Mitros+ (external link) for Nikon should be available soon. That's pretty much the only integrated option with TTL.

I think its pretty likely YongNuo will integrate the YN-622N into the flashes (especially considering the YN-568EX II for Nikon was shelved) but how long that will take I don't know.

IF you want to use it manually you could get a Godox V850 and use their transmitter (FT-16) and receiver which is tiny and just snaps onto the side of the flash unit.
