Re: WH16 Tank Control System

Good spot Tom. I can't imagine that he would have restricted the IR to an obsolete HL format, so it's a fair guess that it is Tamiya standard. Even if it wasn't, if I can get the Arduino Uno conversion board to work from an IR pulse, it would be a one wire hook up. My work on that has ground to a halt, the Uno board that I have is now in a box and hooked up to an Artillery gun, and I don't want to disturb it. Two more cheap Uno boards are on a slow boat from China, and a Mega 2560 that I bought to test decided to corrupt its own USB port firmware and won't talk to the pc...trying to get a replacement/refund on that one. Talk about frustrating...
The WH16 also looks like it might be using the new style bus receivers, which is why he is using an FSi6 tx. This is the same path that the TCB has taken, makes me wonder whether the rest of the industry will follow suit?
