RC system version 2.

so after my previous successful proof on concept RC system i decided it was time to start on version 2.
it still only has very basic firmware in this demo. no sensors are on the plane yet and no data is being transmitted back from the aircraft as yet.
this functionality will be enabled in future firmware versions.
i expect range to be around 1 mile although this is as yet untested.

nice how much 4 the hole set up?

[dunkclimbs]

for just the RC system it's around 100Euro in parts if you are able to make your own PCBs. (not including the PS2 controller, servos, motor, etc.)

is that what you were asking?

[uday932]

i mean the part use to make the back flap work

[uday932]

i mean the moving thing at the back

This is great! I was surprised at how light and simple it is. Saving the info to EEPROM is, as mentioned, a really cool feature.

Dunk, your voice sounds like you're dieing or something =P

Nice idea about saving trims to EEPROM! I think I'll be borrowing that idea from you =)
