RE: FM receiver
yes an normal size receiver is worth its price I can agree on that... But im into micro planes... whit a weight of 60g that you fly indoors.
Get a receiver and servos for such a plane costs alot and isnt much more reliable than one you build yourself!
So Im going to take my hours worth alot of money and develop my own receiver whit surface-mounted ICs!
If I make a 3g system for $30 + working time I still make a bargain!
A 2g system now kosts $130! And IT ISNT WORTH THAT MUCH!
But well if you are a milionare like you seem to be it might not be worth it...
Im a student so I dont have money for such things..
Anyway, Ive found a page where a man has built his own 2g receiver. there is schematics and everything there...
So I guess I can build my own receiver for just the component price now. whitout any overvalued time wasted!
ohh! almost forgot! I must give you a very big THANKS for the time you spent trying to convince me not to save money!
since your valuable time is worth $50-$60 an hour you have at least given me $30!
