Would like some input on how to achieve the following : I am building a parachute jump box for my C47 that will eject 4 paratroopers out in sequence, approx. 1 second apart.
So basically the function will have 5 servos; the first opens the door, and the other 4 servos release the spring loaded paratroopers in sequence about 1 second apart.
I am thinking the gear door sequencer section of the Core could be used to achieve this ?
Would like opinions and input please-
PS- I know how to do it "old school" with micro switches, but I think it can be done in a cleaner way using the powerful Core software-
Thanks in advance for your help-

Any aware of a US reseller of https://www.stv-tech.com/index.php?language=en mounts or an alternative? Love their stuff but international shipping sucks.

Hi everyone,
just gone over to PowerboxCore radio, I fly F5J electric launched gliders . Any info on setting up ailerons and flaps for multiple modes would be appreciated. I have managed to set up all the flight mode switching but just cannot see how to set the phase off sets.

….and now PowerBox have released their own new servo. I servo 5, P2 bus compatible.
powerful, 38kg/cm., fast , all metal case similar to MKS. Brushless, too. Reasonably priced for a top quality servo.
Looks, good, very, very good !
Two are on order for a full description and operational experience in RCJI

at 6 volts is 04 amps.
400 ma at idle suggests you have some very serious control restrictions.
I have just set up an AW Sea Fury with 15 servos, including landing gear doors and I have got the total current down to 1.3 amps.
Servos are Savox1256, JR 8931s and Ditex. Etc.

The first 20 minutes exploring these servos was highly impressive.
Tightest gears I have ever experienced, even on some very fine servos, and with a large amount of very valuable data via P2 bus facility.,… and NO servo buzz, just a slight hum when delivering high torque !
Idle current , no load, .04 amps.
Absolutely superb devices, will be using a lot more of them with my Core.
