IBC help

[knightrous]

Glen got his opto-isolater from Jake Anderson (Plan B). I havent seen the need for opto-iso in any of our 5 IBC using featherweights, most of our trouble with radio has been damaged recievers or aerials being damaged. I heard from Mr Stu that using a 40mhz tuned technobots aerial helps heaps, so maybe buying one of them will get some of you out of your problems straight away.

yeah the opto-isolaters work fine, i noticed a good increase in range.

it basically uses a single opto isolating chip and two resitors per servo lead. you basically cut the servo leads in half and put it in there and it stops noise travelling up the lines.

ill get the diagram for you asap.

ok looking for a fan to fit over my IBC heatsink any suggestions of a good fan ?

Any old computer will deliver at least 1 useable fan.
The IBC has a stabilized 12V powersource on the aux wires, I use that to feed an old computer 80mm powersupply fan

We just mount good ole 35mm chip set fans onto our IBCs and weve had no troubles.

Im currently chasing up a 60mm Vantec Tornado fan for my IBC for my new bot Revelation.

tim stewart made a bigger heat sink for his IBC, in that it stuck up more.

that might be another option if your really desperate.
