AboutKen Myers Expertise I can answer beginning, advanced and expert questions about electrically
powered R/C model aircraft, and many questions about R/C model aircraft of
all types, except helicopters. I`ve been building, flying and designing R/C
model aircraft for 40 years.
Experience I have been building and flying radio controlled model aircraft since 1960. I'm the president of the Electric Flyers Only, Inc., located in southeasten Michigan. I'm a past president of the National Electric Aircraft Council. I'm vice-president of the Midwest R/C Society. I was president and main founder of the UFO (Union Lake Flying Organization). I've built and flown most types of model aircraft except helicopters.
Question I recently bought and then flew and eventually broke a Palm-Z mini airplane they work with an infrared controller. The rudder is controlled buy a small coil with a magnet on a pivot.
They look very simple and i would like to make something like it to use with a standard radio controller and receiver. My question actually is about connecting this to the receiver. I see a normal servo has 3 wires connecting it to the receiver. Can this be applied to a magnetic coil servo that consists of a coil with 2 wires.?
I am a bit new to R/c stuff but am 40 years old and am pretty handy at making stuff as i am a cabinet maker and builder
Answer Hi Robert,
I'm not familiar with micro RC gear and actuators, but Plantraco specializes in it. http://www.plantraco.com/
