Necroposting....

I am in almost the same boat at the moment.

I am planning on building an aircraft model and I want to add electronics to its display.

A simple push button would activate things...aircraft lights turn on, motor starts spinning up the prop,

and engine sounds (start up and fly past).

Whole thing would run for 10 to 20 seconds tops.

I've been casually looking at building a small electronics board with all the necessary controllers on it

along with some sort of power. (I think I'd prefer batteries, but a rechargeable is also an option)

Anyway, I'm terrible at learning new stuff now and even though I've watched a few videos,

I'm still stumbling in the dark as to what to buy and what/how to build.

Just venting about it really.

I've found the videos mentioned here on the forum, and found more over at the u-tubes.

But theres only so much patience I have for watching videos that don't include drag racing and/or half naked women.

Just being honest. lol

I don't want to just order it from someone, I'd rather build it myself.

I also don't want to spend a lot, another reason to build it myself.

So theres my dilemma.

Oh well, back to my computer. I have another boardgame to finish.
