InfoCard Lua script
There is a new Lua script available in the download section.
It displays an image file on a widget screen. It's been tested on a RadioMaster TX16S but it should work on other Edge TX / Open TX radios.
The basic idea is that you create an image file with details about your model. For me this includes the Model name, a photo of the model and some text detailing the switch functions. I usually display this full sccreen. The widget simply displays an image file that has the same filename as the model name. e.g. For my Durafly Tundra (model name Tundra) it displays Tundra.png.
New website
I am currently in the process of migrating the old website to a new Content Management System.
This site is the new one. If you are looking for something that was on the old website but isn't here yet you can still access the old website at https://Old.ColinsRadioControl.com.
The old website has now been taken offline.
New application on website.
I recently bought a "SkyRC GSM-015 GPS speed Meter" to check the altitude of my planes etc.
If you have one of these and have used the SkyRC GNSSLogger application you will know that the application is quite basic.
It allows you to save projects and also has the option to export paths to a KML file. The KMLexport facility though doesn't allow you to set options (path name, line colour, line width etc.). I have created a small web-app that will allow you to upload a project file (.3gpl), set some parameters and then convert it to a kml file.
The app can be accessed via the Applications menu to the left.
FreeCAD files.
Hi,
I have started using FreeCAD to design parts for my models. I will be making some of these available for download from the site.
One of the things that I found useful was to create parts objects for things I use in my models (servos, prop guards etc.) I can import them into the FreeCAD drawing of the part I am designing to see how they fit. I will be making these available for download also. They are available as .step files so I guess they could be used in a number of 3D CAD packages as well as FreeCAD.
So far there is a SG90 9 gram servo and a DJI Phantom 2 prop guard. You can check them out in the FreeCAD section.
