Hey guys!
I’m doing a small batch of my bamboo remotes with military grade thumb-wheels and telemetry. You can learn all about them and transfer your hard-earned money into my coffers at https://3sk8esk8.com/custom-race-remotes/ I’ll be shipping late August to mid-September.
Thank you ahead of time if you purchase for supporting a small business. Hopefully, I’ll be making more of these soon. I just got my hands on a CNC router to do my job while I ride. Once it’s up and running production will go up and the price will go down. The remotes have been a hit. I want to get them into the hands of more riders while continuing to improve upon them. Thanks again! Happy riding
Will you be selling these as ‘kits’ with just the electronics? These sound amazing but I think some of us would rather save money on CNC works and bamboo by printing ourselves
@tomiboi, do these have the option to use the button as a momentary output on the reciever? If not, are these reprogrammable using the Arduino IDE like other feather remotes?
@Ace, that feature is the only thing that would stand in the way of using it with the TTL system. Since it uses UART you would also need a dual ESC that has 2 comm ports or a uSplit, but seeing as you will have both, you would be all set
@Kellag Yes, these have the same internals as the Feather Remote, just a better build and thumbwheel. I’ve heard some people complain about the Feather Smart remote project, but I haven’t had the same problems.
@Agressivstreetlamp My goal is to get these things under $200 someday, but at the moment it costs $175 in parts to make one remote. Then there are hours on handy-work and a shop full of tools involved. So it’s going to take a while to get the price down. In the meantime, I’m happy to help you make your own.
Thanks! I may just be doing that.
I totally understand that the work you put in is worth what you’re asking.
A hand crafted item like that is worth it.
