Hello guys,
is it possible to have the ssc-32 generate a ppm signal that can be sent to a rc transmitter?
what i want to do is controll the ssc from a computer, then have the ssc send the signal to the robot using standard [futuba/hitec/jr] rc components
im a bit of a noob when it comes to robot building, but as far as i understand, trainer connectors for rc transmitters and trasmitter modules both the same ppm signal to send to the recieiver…
what would also work would be to have “reverse” rc reciver, a transmitter that takes pwm input and sends that as radio signals… perhaps its possible to mod a regular rc reciver to work like that? wishful thinking perhaps
any advice on how to achive this is greatly appriciated, writing software for this is no problem for me, i mostly need help on the hardware side
btw i found this: chrisgood.com/uav/web_compon … /index.htm
from what i understand this guy is using an rc transmitter to control an ssc board. what i want to do is the revese, have the ssc control the rc transmitter (and the pc in turn control the ssc)
There is no way to “control” an RC transmitter from an SSC-32. But you might want to read through the DIY RC thread. It tells you how to build a custom transmitter. It might be helpful.
thanks i will check that out
Right now im leaning towards using a netduino .net version of arduino] board.
The neat thing is that i can either use a wifi shield or use the ethernet port of the netduino+ with a wifi bridge for fast prototyping
in otherwords the setup would be: PC <-> ethernet/wifi <-> netduino controller <-> ssc-32 -> servos -> doomsday device
using wifi will also enable sending data back to the pc, although that might also be possible with rc transmitters/recivers but i dont know how to do that
as for my understanding aL3891 talking about to plug RC transmitter to servo channels of SSC-32 and send some commands this way comport->SSC32->RC system
probably it could be possible logically but technically i’m not sure
