Builders meeting has come and gone.
Brett sorted out the problems with the IBCX. Turned out the gear switch on the TX I am using is set to give absolute max servo travel causing a failsafe to kick in. Embarassed

The other problem I was having was with the spin controllers. [Two paralleled pairs of mosfets; one gives a PWM output the other just switches on 100%.] Was that they weren’t working.
Problem there was that I had got mixed up and forgotten that they switch to earth. Embarassed

In other words there was nothing wrong with it at all. Very Happy

Brett made up a pic to work the flip and tweaked the code to suite the TX gear signal. Thanks Brett. So I should have Skeletor driving later today. Cool

Not yet, I can start organising it anytime, but I'm waiting to hear when a few people are closer to being ready.. Jason is back from overseas, and a couple of other things clear up.

its probably one of those things where they wont be ready until 1 day before the competition no matter how long I wait Rolling Eyes, so I'll probably start making some moves on it soon..

How does mid-october sound ?
