Thanks, that looks like a great explanation.

It also confirms you can use a logic analyzer to look at the signal, the first shot is a Saleae logic analyzer screen. The cheap clones have basically the same signal capture capability, but their decoding software may be a bit out of date.

I will have to dive into it later. A massive thunderstorm just hit so I'm powering down.

Hi Birdbarber, ptern,

Thanks for useful informations!

I thought some of you that are subscribed to this thread might find this interesting... an unmanned fueling aircraft really opens possibilities, especially for military use!

I hope it's not made by DJI.

now I need to go back and see if I can find the link I thought I put here. It is a good thing I wasn't in on that build, I'd have lost it!

Edit, link https://www.businessinsider.com/stin...me-2021-6?op=1

anyone got a good H3050 servo they want to part with.............

Wet and windy Sunday so no flying, had the materials to hand for awhile now, so time for revisions to the “heli cart”. Three tote boxes high and 450s on top of that was getting a bit unwieldy ! Bit like my helis it was time for a “Stretch “! Lower tote box stack height and a double plus bigger top deck - mobile heli pad

Looking good. So are you ever going to RC that rig? I guess a big downside is that a dumb thumb could crash all of your helis at once, but you would have bragging rights for worst heli crash ever.

no mechanical steering on it, otherwise it would be pretty easy !

the revamp is all about improved stability ! 3 tote boxes high with helis on top was getting unwieldy - tippy ! I need the better - bigger pad for flying off the grass now especially since the parks guys leave the grass a bit longer over winter.

Well after 3-4 years of not flying I've got the V922 out along with the XK K110 for a small fly around the yard.

The V922 is still lively as ever. I should really tame it down a bit. The K110 is awesome as ever.

Tomorrow I'll give the Master CP some airtime as well as the V950. If I can get my confidence and skills back up I hope to be flying the 450's by the weekend.
