Rangefinder circuits, official sign up thread

I would like to be on the jango selfcontained wait list

Andy, guess this means that you'd like for me to start on that hollow RF for ya now? :p

I was amazed at how nice the LEDs looked, too bad I don't have an RF servo yet. The two Bobas were giving me servo envy. :cry

They will fit in an FPH, which also has the clear section -- but it takes a great deal of massaging.

I had to dremel out a good bit of material in the resin base, carefully twist some of the electronics to get it in, gingerly shove it into the back with the LEDs bent slightly toward the back, then push until they straightened out through the holes.

The BM looks like it might have a little more space though. The end result on the FPH RF looks good though, so I wish you luck!!!

Hi all. I got my circuit, and it is awesome. Now, maybe I should of asked this before but, which RF's will it fit in? I think I have a BM deluxe ESB, which has a clear base section, is that gonna work?

Sorry to dig an old thread up, but i'm at a cross roads here. I got my FPH all painted and ready for some nice blinking LEDs. I tried the method MADMARTIGAN suggested, but it's still tight. It "feels" like i'm gonna break some of the electronics on the LED board. Was anyone else able to squeeze theirs into an FPH hollow RF?? Any Pics??

Thanks guys.
