Mario can do both
Ok, one thing is still bugging me; how do I failsafe everything?
The pneumatics? You get an radio controlled switch & wire it up the valve solenoid as shown in the supplied diagram.Originally Posted by MicroGravity100
Pretty much anything that has a servo lead has an built in fail safe, with some very aircraft based exceptions.
Thanks, but not just the pneumatics; everything. Is their a controller with failsafes?
Most speed controllers fail safe.Originally Posted by MicroGravity100
Electronize, Scorpion XL & Sabretooth are the most common found in FWs.There are other boat controllers out there that do also but are designed for,well, the current of boats. I'd recommend Electronize to anyone, not the best but simple, doesn't break easily & cheap.
For the pneumatics, try technobots own RC switch or the Battle switch. Both will fail safe the system.
Ok, finally, I just have to ask this:
Is this all I need, and will they all work together?

you'll need a solenoid valve to control the cylinder and an on/off valve.
also the tank is really expensive inc postage the bottle in front of me is the same size but half the price

plus you will need a battleswitch to the valve
