Re: Help with pit on home arena

Help with pit on home arena

Hi all, so I've eventually got round to finishing 2 ant weight robots for my eldest boy/me! Also I've built an arena and was looking to get it finished for Christmas.

Re: Das Mikro - £12 dual channel speed controller with mixing

Hi, Forgive me for what is probably a stupid question but can you use any of these receivers with the das Mikro. Or can someone suggest one please. I'm a complete beginner so wiring this is going to be fun! https://hobbyking.com/en_us/dsm2-6ch-without-case-and-no-cert.html https://hobbyking.com/en_u...
