27MHz remote control
This is a niche product intended for radio control (RC) purposes. It consists of a receiver and a transmitter PCB. Hard- and software are derivatives of the research PCB (see elsewhere on this website). Amongst others it can be used for remote control of a model submarine equipped with piston tanks (dynamic diving). Recently field tests with a prototype system based on the AX5043 transceiver has been successfully completed. The receiver below is equipped with the Radiometrix LMR0 module. In terms of functionality and dimensions there is no difference between a receiver equipped with the AX5043 or the LMR0 module.
Receiver
The receiver provides 7 digital outputs (ULN2003) and 7 proportional pulse outputs (servo control signals).
​
Multiple autonomously acting safeguards keep the vessel within safe operating conditions.
​
The supply voltage (VS) ranges from 4.5 to 12VDC and can be a regulated power supply or a (rechargeable) battery. ​
Transmitter
The transmitter provides 7 digital and 7 analogue inputs. The digital inputs are on/off signals and the analogue inputs servo control signals.
Supports the Radiometrix LMT0 transmitter module (on the back of the PCB).
​
Amongst others provides a PPM input for utilizing the joysticks of an off-the-shelf RC transmitter. This function requires a PPM output on the off-the-shelf RC transmitter (trainer port).
​
The supply voltage is 15VDC regulated.​
