And as for why I need to build the speed control with authentic sounds…………Who said anyfink about authentic? You can catch the first part of the story here http://www.wars.asn.au/warsbb/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=302 and while I was at it I thought I would chuck in a nice speedy. I mean think about it, two motors one ESC. May as well just have single screw. Besides, I have sneaky suspicion that this ol boy can still think so the more stimulating the boat is the better heh.
Yours Sincerely
Chris Holme

Gotta keep a bit
active if your going to do any collaboration.
The DS5000 is an 8051 type micro with built in battery backed ram
an i/o in 40 pin dip.
You know people on the dark side? Interesting.
So what do you require a remote controled vehicle with authentic
diesel motor sounds?
