Electrics - Where?
« on: May 10, 2007, 03:15:25 pm »

Help

If you have a receiver, four motors, two speed controllers and a servo for the rudders where in the circuit do you put a mixer?

FLJ is my guru, but my mixer is connected to the receiver output and the rest of the items, ie, esc`s and rudder servo connect into the mixer outputs.   Pete M

OK, I am stupid. But what is a "mixer"? Please enlighten as I have never heard of this before!

Talking of mixers, I have just discovered my 3 channel hitec radio handset has a mixer switch on the back. I bought and use the unit only for 2 channel on boats, but I am now curious - whats the mixer bit for?
