hi guys

this is for all the DIY kind or people on budget  Tongue

i made a elevon mixer for my flying wing glider( thanks to raghavan for cutting the wings ),i don't have a computer radio at ( still being build ) so for the time being i added this feature to my old trusty radio ( futaba AM attack 4 ).

this is not my own design , i got it from the net and this is one of the best free source mixer designs . see the link  below!

1.http://ilufa.orgfree.com/MIXER_E.htm

2.mixer setup information !

http://ilufa.orgfree.com/MIXER_E1.htm

parts that u require to complete the built are

SETUP 1

1. 16F84A                             --- micro controllers
2. 4MHZ crystal                      --- only if u plan to build the mixer using 16F84A IC , like i did
3. 0.1uF                                --- disc capacitor, one required
4. 33pF                                 --- disc capacitor , two required
5. dip switch                          --- 2 pin
6. small vero board or PCB
7. IC base                              --- depend on which IC you are going to use 18pin or 8pin !!!
8. servo connectors male          --- two required
9. straight header                    --- 40 pin male strip
10. misc                                 --- solder wire , soldering iron , multimeter , wires etc.

SETUP 2

1. 12C508A or 12C509A            --- micro controllers
2. 0.1uF                                --- disc capacitor, one required
3. dip switch                          --- 2 pin
4. small vero board or PCB
5. IC base                              --- depend on user n which IC you are going to use 18pin or 8pin !!!
6. servo connectors male          --- two required
7. straight header                    --- 40 pin male strip
8. misc                                 --- solder wire , soldering iron , multimeter , wires etc.

total cost varies from 120/- to 60/- for 16F84A and 12C508/9 respectively.

and important of all is a PIC micro controller programmer, for this u can either buy one locally or from USA or build your own,
JDM 2 ( serial port ) is a very good programmer, i have built it and works plus easy to set up!!!, try Google for it and if u guys need any help programming or setting up the software let me know (PM or mail)

here is a commercial programmer i got from USA ( USB port ), look for k 128 kit

http://www.ozitronics.com/

if u feel this is getting to messy for you, i can program the chip and send it for free of charge !!! ( just programming )
rest you  guys can build.

see the youtube video, note the video was take in setup 1 and weighed 19gram and here are some pictures

Great Thumbs Up

Any plans to shrink wrap it (I guess you will need to cut out a window for the DIP switches) ?

It protects from short circuits, any weather issues, and fuel/oil in case of nitro models (depending on where they are used).
