Help with controlling animatronic servo operated pilot
I am working on getting my pilot ready for my new jet next year, and was looking for a little advice. I have a pilot that will have multi axis movements, moving arms, head up and down, rotating head,
I have a 20ch transmitter but I really would prefer not to use 3 or 4 channels just for the pilot, not to mention trying to assign switches and program a sequenced setup through the transmitter, although I know it can be done. My question , is there a programmer or controller to use just for a pilot? perhaps one that only uses 1 signal to start a sequence, or multiple sequences? any help or advice would be appreciated, thanks

you can also use a spare channel to trigger off sub-scripts on demand, like the salute i set this pilot up to do on servo input. You can even use an ultrasonic sensor and accomplish the same thing as someone gets within proximity to the sensor . its a great way to impress fellow modelers while really freaking people out 😂
