IBU2 IR emitter question
Posted: Wed Jun 15, 2016 8:45 pm
Hi all,
Battle day coming up this weekend and is planning bringing my DGS Firefly with IBU2 to do battle, then realized I know nothing about the IBU2 hook-up for IR. Questions for the IBU2 crowd:
- I don't have any Tamiya battle units, so can I use the IR port on the Heng Long 5 pin plug ? The 1st two pin seems to say Tx+ and Tx-, and then the next three is standard HL receiver.
- The Flasher Ring port, is that where you plug in the LED(s) for the Hit indicator ? I should be able to use the Blue Ring on it right ? Blue Ring is a ring of LEDs from RCTA.
I am hoping that IBU doesn't only support TBU and their IR emitter..........
