Hi All
Thought it was about time to let on about just a few of the new developments/products for the first quarter of 2014.
The biggest news id that RCTA boards are now going into "mass production" with 80-90% of assembly now being done in China. However, all programming and final QA testing is still carried out here in Australia. The first board into mass production is the MAKO TE
Mass production will allows RCTA boards to have yet more features and or have a decrease in price. At less than $20 and FREE WORLDWIDE shipping, the MAKO TE is by far the cheapest way to bring battle IR compatibility to your Taigen or Heng Long tanks.
Remora boards are also now available and they have now been upgraded with an alarm buzzer and hence function now as BOTH a transmitter of IR battle info AND a LiPo low voltage alarm.
Currently in production are the latest version of the RC5HL which features improved and updated firmware along with some extra LEDs on the board to help indicate what is going on. These new boards will be available by the 2nd week of May 2014. Order now to receive a pre-order discount of 20%.
As far as BRAND new products go. Here is just the first of a few on the design table. Introducing "Blue"
Not earth shattering I grant you BUT darn handy and at less than $10 with FREE WORLDWIDE SHIPPING the easiest and cheapest way to add indicator LEDs to your Taigen or Heng Long mushroom. Teamed up with MAKO TE you have an extremely economical IR battle solution.
Blue fits both the Heng Long and Taigen copy shrooms. It is a tight fit on the Taigen but Blue will get there
Finally, on the more 'techy front' work is slowly progressing on PanzerX - the latest incarnation of tankER9X. Designed for the latest releases of 'open source' friendly radios. I could go on about PanzerX but I don't have enough time, suffice to say PanzerX does it all, 16 channels, model matching, sound, images, telemetry. multiple radio protocols.....
Cheers
