Default RE: Aerobird - New Web Site

Have two aerobirds, so I have starting tinkering with the electronics in one. I am going to see if you can removed the control wires (not the power wires) from the servos and rearrange them in a way that eliminates the mixer. It seems logical. I got it apart a few weeks ago and kinda lost interest on the project because I was having troubles resoldering the wires and got frustrated.

Has anyone tried this? There are three inputs on each servo. I assume it is kinda like digital input (either on/off, 0/1). But not quite sure because it is proportional to stick input, but this may be taken care of with the actual power wires. I am not sure. So I think if you get the correct combination it may eliminate the mixer. If I accomplish this I may try to but a convential tail on it, but with out the rudder control. I then can attempt to make ailerons for the wings with the second channel.

Does this sound far fetched? If anyone has evidence that it is completely impossible please share it with me. I think it would be kinda cool if i could get it to work.

By the way, you have very nice page so far.
