I hope this is the wright place to post this,
I have a Jagpanther and Stug III both IR. I also have a DBC board and sound chip. I installed the DBC into the Jadpanther and sound card.
BUT
The momentum works, the super spin blocking works and the sound card works with the "K" button but no IR shot from the "K" button, only from the left stick up but I still get the recoil jump from the Left stick up.
ALSO when it takes a hit from the Stug it still does its dance but it does not slow it down 50%, not even 5%
I hope this is clear enough to understand what I am trying to say.
The board is a RX18 and I am using the HL radio. And although I have the DBC I am running with the HL IR.
Please tell me if I am wrong in my thinking.
What I think is that the Jag is running with the DBC but the HL IR has no effect on the DBC so there is no battle damage(50% drop of speed) and there is no IR from the K because it's not DBC it's HL, and it still does its dance because it's still HL IR.
What do you guys think?
I like the momentum, the cannon sound is better, and the super spin blocker is good for driving in tight places (eg my village)
Any advice and a description of what IR emitters and receivers I should get.
Please help me

Re: DBC / RX18 Problem.
I think this ones a job for the Blitz...
Is your HL detector plugged into the DBU or the RX18? My understanding was that you needed to at least strip the HBU and replace the sensor before you plugged it into the DBU.
If you still have the emitter and detector plugged into the RX18, this would explain the problems you are seeing. The DBC does not interact with the RX18, it mearly alters the signal being sent from the receiver. If the emitter and detector aren't present, it can't shot or be hit.

Re: DBC / RX18 Problem.
I think that explains what is happening. From my understanding the entire Darkith system needs to be installed. The Darkith sits in the circuit so to speak, and intercepts signals to and from the main board. The Darkith sensors, although industry standard, operate on a specific frequency. Those signals are detected and picked up by the Darkith board. The Darkith board may not be able to detect the signals received from an HL sensor as they are probably on a different frequency.
It is similar to the way that an Elmod board uses different sensors to Tamiya or Darkith, but can detect hits from either. I have no idea how all this jiggery pokery works but it does.
I have one in my RX14/Bulldog, and I have to say that it works brilliantly. The only issue I have, and it is no reflection on the Darkith unit, is that because of the HL board design there are comprises with the 'dance' and the muzzle flash.

Hi guy's just ordered a DBCRC2 unit, I'll do a brief review when I've got the unit installed in the Panther. All the best for now
