amorti Posted July 10, 2020 Posted July 10, 2020 Anyone got one of these? Or speak Russian well enough to understand what it's about? I think I'd like to try one, looks like a great idea. https://m.vk.com/24rcbrick @rm8? Quote
JunkstyleGio Posted July 10, 2020 Posted July 10, 2020 RC-Brick is a two-channel proportional control module for LEGO electric Power Functions system using radio-controlled models. You can find video's here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCav-bOoKxveJsB1uKy_PyEg/ Quote
amorti Posted July 10, 2020 Author Posted July 10, 2020 My questions would be: 3S or 2S lipo; what can it use? How many amps can one unit supply? How many motors can it power? I want it to power 4* Chinese "+30%" L motors. Can they be paired to increase output? Quote
rm8 Posted July 13, 2020 Posted July 13, 2020 Hello It is cusom made RC adapter by our russian enthusiast, not a serial product (not sure if he will be able to finish it, because can't guarantee quality of chinese elements). For example, this model is controlled by RC Brick. It work both with 2S and 3S. 3S voltage is high for PF SERVO, so no gurantee it will not burn, but we are risky guys here. RC Brick has only 2 channels, and can handle up to 4x LEGO Buggy motor, BUT, after long runs all LEGO connectors and wires to Buggy motors become HOT, and even can be damaged. So, we found a cheat to distrubite the heat using LONG 50 cm wires, and using doubled or more LEGO extension wires. But it is only for real crazy petrolheads))) Example with 4 motors (14:36) 1x buggy motor overall, it is safe comfort to use up to 2x buggy or other PF motors without overheating It also very useful to control model by one hand with RADIO remote and to hold camera with other like here (BUWIZZ LDCR as power, XL + SERVO, RC-Brick to control) Quote
amorti Posted July 13, 2020 Author Posted July 13, 2020 @rm8 Thanks! Please let the group know if it ever becomes a commercial product. There's real potential in it. Is longer wires a good idea? The heat would be from resistance in the cable. Add cable, add resistance... Quote
rm8 Posted July 13, 2020 Posted July 13, 2020 Just now, amorti said: @rm8 Thanks! Please let the group know if it ever becomes a commercial product. There's real potential in it. Well, if author will do that final, I sure you will know it first)) Quote Is longer wires a good idea? The heat would be from resistance in the cable. Add cable, add resistance... good question)))) I am just transferring feedback from those who have real practice with 4x Quote
