Re: My first antweight thread
That is a nice looking and well thought out robot. The only slight worry is the very low ground clearance combined with the rear overhang would mean in a pushing contest any lifting at the front will result in the tyres losing contact with the floor and hence result in loss of grip. Cheers Peter! Y...

My first antweight thread
Hello everyone, long time no see! I hope everyone is safe. I'm coming back to this forum to finally present to you an actual antweight! Yep, it has taken me a while to actually make a working ant and most importantly under the rules but I blame this on the lack of free time and me never being happy ...

Re: About transmitters...
I think in AFHDS2A, the transmitter sends a "failsafe" packet sometimes which tells the receiver what stick position it should adopt after losing signal. Some receivers ignore this, others honour it. Before doing what Kyro kindly suggested, last night I just set the failsafe up on my radi...

Re: About transmitters...
Now that's a great trick, thanks! I didn't know you could do that. I thought I could just set it on the radio and be done with it.
Apparently I've stumbled upon some fake news.

Re: About transmitters...
For the sake of knowledge, I managed to find a tx/rx pairing that works! I had ordered a FlySky GT5 surface transmitter to use on my RC cars and a FlySky FS2A 4ch micro receiver. They both use the AHFDS 2A protocol, but I had no hopes of binding them successfully, since I have read quite a few forum...

Re: About transmitters...
A quick note on DasMikro mixing - Dasmikro has a reputation for being unreliable and some excs just straight up don't work. In my personal experince, it's ALWAYS the ones with mixing that fail. That might be pure luck from my end, but I've yet to have an un-mixed dasmikro not work. Oh, I've broken ...

Re: About transmitters...
Thank you for your fast reply! I'm really looking forward to see what you can come up with :D I only use DasMikro's ESCs so far, and that one you linked looks just exactly like one. I have no idea if the DasMikro includes mixing, but I do have some mixers in my spare box, so I'm covered ;) EDIT: Yes...

About transmitters...
Hello guys, long time no see :) I was wondering if anyone is actually using a surface TXs instread of stick TXs to control their antweights. I have a few MLP4DSM radios, binded to some ORX R610V2 and they're working flawlessly at the moment. However, I'm mainly an RC car basher and I have been one f...

Re: Servo won't center
Okay, in the end I decided to go with an even cheaper (and lighter) DasMikro, which should be at my doorstep in a few days, hoping the customs won't have anything to say about it
