i have an afterthought as I seem to do.I have ordered k-s1 IN black ,I do not remember if other colours were available.(should wear my glasses).Did anyone else notice ,and has anyone seen the blue and silver colours, that is if Amazon allow me. Regards.
As to the Flucard, it should come as part of the redemption offer.

Given that with this on a pole, etc, you won't be able to see what you're shooting anyway, why not just switch it on in video mode then pull individual frames off the video in post?
Or, if remote control is essential, maybe a Garmin Virb or Virb Elite?

Unfortunately I don't have a K3/Pentax Flucard, so can't help further.

£639 at SRS; £599 after cashback, so I guess it's a gamble on a 1 year Amazon warranty vs. 2 year with SRS.

...no wireless card other then the Pentax Flucard uses the in-built camera functions.

Deduct £ 100 for the card, £100 for the lens...and that's one very cheap camera.
