Re: Servonaut infrared ARO transmitter question
Given the ScaleArt team do use IR gear(inc. servonaut), you could ask them on how they do it with their 5th wheel.
Also the German forums will have some builds with similar setups.
Cheers,
AP.

Re: Servonaut infrared ARO transmitter question
Hi,
I have both the AIRU and AIR4 with the AMO's.
As to range, I think something like 15-20cm(6-8 inches) is aok.

Re: 4 Axle Low loader
All,
Thanks for the feedback and advice. :-)
I do like the idea of making it equalized across all four, and I have picked up two sets of reefer suspension parts. That will be the next...

Re: LASER or GPS?
Just thought about the laser sender on the model... Not sure if that would work either, getting bumped and moved about may not be the best..

Re: LASER or GPS?
Hi,
My 2 cents...
If you just wanted a level I think the laser side should be doable. I should be possible to use an arduino on the model and work out if the tool is high or low.
For slopes...

Re: Spektrum DX10 system fault

I did ask Spektrum about the boot time, apparently it is due to the additional complexity. The dx18 is similar to the 10t.
FWIW I have been playing with the spam files, from bog the 8...

Re: 4 Axle Low loader
I don't want to go wild trying to equalise it... Just leave the leaf springs in place and add some rockers. I might have to try and find some shorter springs to keep the axle spacing correct, or...

Re: Spektrum DX10 system fault
Paul,
Mine takes a while to start up as well, not 10 seconds though.
I might try and ask Spektrum to comment on the boot time (it does feel long).
