NoEXIST

There it is

Recheck the info, I was a little bit mistaken. 4*5*5, it's lower (photo by @osterum)

4*5*6 to be accurate, asked my friend about dimensions few days ago:) both are 4 stud wide, but pne of them is 5 studs long and the other 7, but height is the opposite, 6 vs 3

@gyenesvi I would say right now RCDeck is very similar to RC brick (even dimensions are similar) difference is that mine now has 2 additional channels. Actually want to say that I'm happy even with 2 channels as RC brick was, but why not to add 2 more channel if it's possible? Yes, PU port uses another ESC, actually if you have PU/PF adapter you can power another buggy motor:)

I'm sure they choose Bluetooth and app to control their models because it doesn't need any changes in hardware to build something completely different. In this case with rc we're still with cars, and rc cars usually have 1 motor for throttle and one servo. Other things are additional and are done similarly. Let's say we're making better PF system:) Most flexible way to do that in my opinion is just having rc components packed in Lego compatible boxes separately. Like 4*3*2 box with receiver, similar box with ESC and maybe PF connectors on top. But in this case we're not really user-friendly. It's still tons of wires, but a little bit easier to connect components to the chassis. In this option deck is becoming just an ESC box with Lego compatible connectors which is also nice, but it's a different product with a little different using scenario

That's actually right. There's less space on cover of the deck than needed with current setup. As @Ryokeen said, you do not always want to reverse the whole channel, the car I'm using for test uses this feature as well. Also with this setup you can't really make 4 pf ports anyways. Pins that are used for pf ports are going straight down, in case of having 4 ports, contacts have to go through the ESC placed on one of the sides of the deck. And here is the lastest problem, you can't make something suitable for everyone. For this purpose I would just rather choose external receiver. In this case you'll have more wires, but more flexibility with the cannel management. Thanks for your kind words:)

Idk if it was said before, but why not to put cylinder in the same position as spring is?

Looking forward for this! Custom tires would be really nice! Maybe finally some thin tires

Thank you for your feedback! 1. I'm not sure it's that good idea as I'm not forcing anyone to use this exact battery. However this one is fitting Lego nicely. 2. Buzzer or voltmeter, it's connected to a balancing wire and inform you about discharge. It's better to have one than overdischarge your battery while playing. 3. I'm not sure right now and will check this at home. Steering channel were adjusted for the model it was in, maybe this is the reason. But I also noticed geekservo is turning a little bit less with the gyro on. (This exact RCDeck is with receiver without gyro by the way, so it may be adjustments) 4. Oh, you're right, completely forgot about that. Will be included in future videos and presentations! It's 7*4*3 (L*W*H)

I think I can show the inside when I'll get PCB's for it, so it will look nicer:) (actually not really possible to see something inside right now) Batteries can be possible but not any time soon... If I will be able to make fully custom PCB with all components used in in ESC's there will be much more room for these features. In conclusion, it is not possible now, but I'll try to work for it!

I got 2 videos today!

Thanks for your question! For now there will be 2 setups, with built in receiver and external receiver. Battery is external for both setups. As I'm not going (at least in the beginning) to start "mass production", there's a room to change something in every individual deck. Ports and mapping for version with built in receiver: Still the same, 4 channels and 5 ports. PF ports (CH2) - synchronized ports for throttle 2x 3pin JR outputs (CH1 and CH3) - one of them is channel 1 for steering and the second is channel 3 for another geekservo or maybe lights (on/off button) PU port (CH4) - channel for secondary functions, it's forward/off/backward (all the motors might behave as PU M motor) Ports and mapping for version with external receiver: It will look almost the same in terms of ports, but JR outputs will be used for connecting CH2 and CH4 with receiver. Geekservos for other channels will be connected directly to a receiver. PF ports (CH2) - synchronized ports for throttle PU port (CH4) - channel for secondary functions, it's forward/off/backward This one is still under development, but the price I said before might be quite accurate. I will upload short video showing deck overall and explaining ports configuration

Exactly

For receiver included version I choose Dumborc X4FM or X4FMG (difference is gyro system built in). If someone already have one of DumboRC transmitters, he can use it with this receiver or will buy it on his own (probably faster and cheaper without me, same for the battery) BTW about battery, battery should be 2-3S and need to use jst plug for both versions.

I'm finally able to say something about price:) - Version with built in receiver: Complete RCDeck without battery and transmitter(receiver included in deck) will cost about ~60€ + shipping (depends on where it goes, 10-25€ would say) In personal messages, it will be possible to more accurately identify the final cost specifically for you (cases when you need a transmitter or battery and their availability) - Version with external receiver: Need to be done, but the price will be lower by the price of the receiver/transmitter In this case price will be ~50€ + shipping I bet other accessories will be probably chosen yourself in this case :D Don't be afraid to ask questions if I forgot about something!

Actually, maybe he should. PU system doesn't have that powerful motors, so I can't guarantee that PU hubs will handle the motor

PU Connector uses 6 contacts, 2 of them are the same as 2 contacts in PF (PF motors itself use only 2 middle contacts, that's why RCDeck got only 2 contacts for PF ports - it don't have to power old IR receivers and it's not built for PF servo) So these adapters might work, you'll get just a "dumb" motor as PU M is

I will calculate the price soon and tell there! Yeah, I ordered motors with "crystal connector" and some cables. Now its PF version. These connectors are completely different to PU connectors. I also didn't found adapters for these connectors on AliExpress. Tests showed that RCDeck is able to do it. But as I mentioned its better to use Y cables not to melt PF connectors. Glad to hear that. I will inform about the price as soon as I find out how expensive all the components will be!

Test units? You guys want to order exact one I'm testing? It has appearance issue that I want to fix before opening order. Btw, you can start thinking about who wants this version, I'll order the components after a while

I left the PF connectors, I had to replace cada connectors with pf as they don't have PF version anymore. About other receivers, this version uses small receiver from Dumborc and I don't think I'll be able to put bigger flysky receivers inside. But I have in mind version that will have receiver outside of the box for those who wants to use their receivers.

Today is the day I finally got my order from Cada and got good news about RCDeck. It was another soldering session, but the motors are ready! There's a little 25 seconds long video from testing (I'm bad at driving with one hand) Results of the test are really good, even my small battery is able to cope with 4 buggy motors for more than 15min. But tests ended earlier than something happened to RCDeck, battery or motors. I hit a curb with my wheel so... I'll continue with these tests, at least I have to know how it goes with the body, and what top speed is P.S. this model uses these custom parts: RCDeck, shortened Cada CV joints, beared hubs and wheels as you can see😁

Thanks! Thanks! Yes, it is did it using Lambo Gallardo Cordelia rim "blueprint"

Another testing prototype... 1.5kg car with 4L motors up geared 1:3 to a daytona diff. 30 minutes of play without any differences to a behavior in small buggy. I decided that I need some more powerful motors, so I'm waiting for 4 buggy motors for the next test. Stay tuned! P.S. Do you like that front rim?

Few days of testing says Deck works fine for smaller models. I tried some higher gear ratios - I was able to call built in motors protection, with any heat in deck. (Which is great in my opinion, next step is bigger testing chassis!) Building this one showed me that it's just better to have small PCB board for pinout, so I'm designing one right now! P.S. Originally built for buwizz. Hopefully won't hurt anyone with this photo

Well, depends on what are you on "fast" cars or something functional. As you want some PU motors I think you're going for a second situation. Anyway for both is always better to have a real controller instead of screen. I never had a problem with BrickController2:)
