Foil Drive V3 Remote - Input Wanted

Looks like it’s made by Maytech to me :eyes:

Do you want the identical features? Do you have capability to code some stuff or adjust etc?

Just get the VX5 remote.

What would be great is if you could customise the code for the VX5

Yeah that would be cool for sure

It doesn’t need to have the exact same features by any means, something with similar feature to flite would be cool. I saw this project a while back but it seems nothing happened with it.

I am happy to write code or just adjust code either is good with me.

Cheers

There is this one https://www.eoloonline.it/remote-controller

You could probably add in some buttons and adjust code relatively easily.

Oh thats cool I haven’t seen that one before, is there any cad files available for it so I can have a go at adapting it for my needs?

Also do you know of any builds which use a touchscreen which is something I have been thinking about.

Thanks

If I want to add a touch screen am I right in saying a resistive touch screen is best for something like this?

Thanks

The STL files are there somewhere or on here somewhere. Just convert them and then edit.

I wouldn’t bother with a touch screen. Every touch screen I’ve even used gets messy with water.

You can’t really convert them easily unless you know a way?

You’re probably right about the touch screen I haven’t seen any commercial brands do it to be fair.

There are some online stl to step converters, some have worked ok for me. Original step is always better.

I’ve used fusion to convert with good success. Alternatively just contact the original maker and ask if he’s prepared to share the step files.

JetWave uses touchscreen on the remote

Oh yeah I forgot about those guys, do you know of any projects that have used touchscreens?

Cheers

Just wondering, but why would you want to have touchscreen?

Umm, tbh it’s probably just for a coolness factor… But it is useful because you can then have menus and stuff without loads of buttons. Its not essential for sure though.

i get that, but how will you even use it in the water? Whats wrong with the VX5?

Nothing wrong with the VX5 for sure I just wan’t to have a go at making one. I’m fairly sure you can use some touch screens in water. But I think they have to be resistive ones
