Test Setup – General I have connected the T1000FC to a 8-channel Corona DSSS receiver. Channels 1,2,4,6 (aileron,elevator,rudder,mode). Channel 3 (throttle) from the receiver goes directly to the ESC. There is no connection to the BATT terminals on the end. Power is applied via the leads from the receiver to […]
I’ve been using MPLAB-X on Kubuntu Linux on a laptop for quite a while now and converting projects over from the old Windows machine. Yesterday I went to work on a project started a couple of weeks ago and found that MPLAB-X which I believe runs in Netbeans, which is […]
What Happened Flying late one afternoon I was spotting and the Hex with a Naza controller with GPS was being flown FPV about 200 meters away at about 70-80 meters altitude over a long-grass field. It stopped responding to RC and was switched to RTH mode (return to home). It […]
I’ve been having a look at this board. Being new to Multiwii and the lack of information and incomplete documentation makes it a real challenge. At first glance it looks very nice for the low price. Then after some hours you start to find the hidden catches; like, it needs […]
New Zealand School removes “some” WIFI Te Horo School removes wifi from junior classes to be replaced with wired ethernet. Older students still have wifi available. Right or wrong? Here’s my opinion. You don’t agree, leave a comment. Not a big deal at this stage. The junior students are probably […]
Glitches at the flying field Recently there have been a few 2.4GHz RC control glitches. We don’t know yet if it’s due to installation of interference. But with various models affected, it’s possibly not just installation. There is a large site nearby that may be using a wifi jammer, but […]
Product added here. This is a in-line PPM buffer or level converter. It normally connects between the RC receiver and whatever it’s controlling, servo, auto-pilot, LED controller etc. Many modern receivers operate at lower voltages and output PPM signals of 3V or less. Sometimes this low level PPM signal must […]
I have added the high power strobe as a product. Link to product. Slightly smaller than a standard SD card . The strobe can be fitted to a RC model for visual effect or to make it more visible Designed originally for RC gliders that can be difficult to see […]
