  • Where did you get the server and the timer?

  • @TheScienceguy1998 We make the timers ourselves, and the servo motors we buy on ebay for a few dollars each.

  • @FLIGHTSIM01124 Please send me an email so I can reply to it. I can't post links to items here.

  • @FLIGHTSIM01124 I got your email address from your comment. I'll email you the details. I've also removed your comment with your email address to prevent spammers from getting it. 

  • @gk123434534 Hi George, where do i can find a flight computer and a servo motor like the one you use

  • @FLIGHTSIM01124 We don't have any more of these left for sale. If you would like to build your own, I can send you the full details, source code, compiled hex file as well the PCB layout. The RC servo motors we buy on e-bay for a few dollars each.

    どうもありがとうございました。

  • @fatpeople249er Hi Walker, yes you can use a standard servo motor from an RC car. We use 9g RC servo motors for our deployment mechanisms.
