hi guys

this is for all the DIY kind or people on budget 

i made a elevon mixer for my flying wing glider( thanks to raghavan for cutting the wings ),i don't have a computer radio at ( still being build ) so for the time being i added this feature to my old trusty radio ( futaba AM attack 4 ).

this is not my own design , i got it from the net and this is one of the best free source mixer designs . see the link  below!

2.mixer setup information !

http://ilufa.orgfree.com/MIXER_E1.htm

parts that u require to complete the built are

SETUP 1

1. 16F84A                             --- micro controllers
2. 4MHZ crystal                      --- only if u plan to build the mixer using 16F84A IC , like i did
3. 0.1uF                                --- disc capacitor, one required
4. 33pF                                 --- disc capacitor , two required
5. dip switch                          --- 2 pin
6. small vero board or PCB
7. IC base                              --- depend on which IC you are going to use 18pin or 8pin !!!
8. servo connectors male          --- two required
9. straight header                    --- 40 pin male strip
10. misc                                 --- solder wire , soldering iron , multimeter , wires etc.

SETUP 2

1. 12C508A or 12C509A            --- micro controllers
2. 0.1uF                                --- disc capacitor, one required
3. dip switch                          --- 2 pin
4. small vero board or PCB
5. IC base                              --- depend on user n which IC you are going to use 18pin or 8pin !!!
6. servo connectors male          --- two required
7. straight header                    --- 40 pin male strip
8. misc                                 --- solder wire , soldering iron , multimeter , wires etc.

total cost varies from 120/- to 60/- for 16F84A and 12C508/9 respectively.

and important of all is a PIC micro controller programmer, for this u can either buy one locally or from USA or build your own,
JDM 2 ( serial port ) is a very good programmer, i have built it and works plus easy to set up!!!, try Google for it and if u guys need any help programming or setting up the software let me know (PM or mail)

here is a commercial programmer i got from USA ( USB port ), look for k 128 kit

if u feel this is getting to messy for you, i can program the chip and send it for free of charge !!! ( just programming )
rest you  guys can build.

see the youtube video, note the video was take in setup 1 and weighed 19gram and here are some pictures

also building the 12c50XA version saves lot of weight,size,time n money and can be built under 4-5 grams weight

okay guys here i go, 20 V-tails mixers built log    and i will start building from tomorrow every evenings an hour till i finish the stuff, i still need to get a crimping tool and shrink tube for the board !

update, got the crimping tool and started building 1st unit

 <7grams weight okay

All the best! We are all anxiously waiting for them............

VC

Best of luck
please keep us updated!!

okay guys this is how a finished unit will look like and now since i have a layout to work with i think by two or three evenings all the stuff should be done  

the mixer weight 6 grams +- 1g, 3 inch extensions with 26swg wires !

Great

Any plans to shrink wrap it (I guess you will need to cut out a window for the DIP switches) ?

yes but its up to the user, i did buy the required shrink tube!

shrink wrap version  

i need the shrink wrap[covered ] version

Shrink wrap for me too. Will pay extra for all your efforts!



VC

actually i will make all the units with shrink wrap cover!

i think that will be better
will it provide protection by the way as i donno for what is it?

It protects from short circuits, any weather issues, and fuel/oil in case of nitro models (depending on where they are used).

ok anwar bhaiya thanks for help
then i'll take with it will pay  extra if required

i m waiting ,

BTW thanks for updating us

finished making the connectors

started work on the PCBs
