NoEXIST

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:)

Really nice design! Actually what I needed for my stopped 1:8 project! When these parts were released I didn't really think that people will be able to make such compact gearboxes!

One of them is built and waiting for the tests! Fun fact, it's already seventh printed body and first one I manage to build Pretty sad statistics (It's so cute to look on only one box and the same size battery for RC system knowing how much wires it takes)

For Dumbo it seems the same, x4fmg has "5" channels including gyro. The thing I'm not sure is how are you adjusting gyro sensitivity with a X4 transmitter. On X6 it's done by turning top knob (6ch)

Yeah, I've seen this one, it's quite nice but I'm not sure because of it's height and length (maybe it will be okay if I solder wires directly to the receiver, but it's not really replaceable then) Another good thing about DumboRC is built in gyro P.S. for me it's 7 Euro;)

Well if we're talking about the same DumboRC X6 transmitter and receiver it has endpoints and trim for channel 1 and 2, other things are as they are. Another one is mini version, seems that it has more adjustments And their best one(?), I bet this one might have these adjustments... Good thing that they all are working with same receivers, so it's only on a customer P.S. Flysky receiver I was talking about: Not sure why it has 5 ports, Ali says it's 4ch. Price is 35-50€ for receiver only. Again, if someone will want Flysky version there will be no problem to install this one instead of DumboRC as they are similar size, but more expensive

Unfortunately not, on the transmitter it's just a button without any adjustments... There's a similar flysky receiver, but it's twice as expensive as x4fm with gyro

1ch for steering, 2ch for throttle, 3ch with 2 positions(2 speed gearbox maybe?) And 4ch for a PU motor with 3 switch position (forward/stop/backward) Actually sounds similar to RC cars(well, quite expectable using RC components)

Same for me, I got X6 transmitter and receiver. X4FM was bought just for the deck. It seems that every dumborc transmitter has similar usage of channel 3 (on/off button). So for me solution is quite simple, 2 ports for geekservo. Thank you;)
