RE: Bro ********'s Custom Boards
Man things change around here quick, don't check in for a while and the developments that go down really change the way we are approaching these surfers.
Dom, the adjustable trim tab makes so much sense why has it not been thought of already, isn't that an age old question.
Some thoughts to add, coming from the flying side of RC where we use mixes regularly, the tab could be setup with auto adjustment (mixing). This could be done in a couple of ways depending on water conditions using a second servo slaved to the throttle channel. This of course would need larger component area built into the board to accomodate a second servo and a "Golden rod" style control mechanisim.
#1: Have the trim tab slaved to throttle with a mix...when the board increases/decreases speed, the trim tab adjusts accordingly.
#2: Have the trim tab slaved to throttle as above, but have it on a switch so the mix can be overridden manually. When the mix is overridden, it defaults to a dial/slider on the TX allowing manual trim tab adjustment on the go as conditions require.my 2c worth.
