MPM for surface use

[WarrenHammerstrom]

Hello!

New here, but I would like to start off with some questions about starting a project to do a mpm surface tx, tailored to more towards the popular protocols for cars, trucks, and cralwers.

I have no experience with coding, but I do have an understanding of electrical components and rf theory from my career as an aircraft mechanic and rc hobbiest. That said, my lack of experience in this feild will be made up for with enthusiasm and my desire to make a working prototype of this radio project.

My goal is to create a module that I can bring to a manufacturer ( I have been in limited talks with radiomaster and jumper) and form an agreement where we can get something of a product built.

With your interest and support, i hope we can sit down together with radiomaster and come up with a project plan.

Thank you for reading my proposal, and I hope this introduction peeks your interest and we can discuss possible ideas on where to go with it.

Take care, and thanks again!

Hi,
To reverse and add the protocols do not need a new module... The MPM already supports multiple surface protocols: Shenqi, DSMR, Kyosho/FHSS, Kyosho/Hype, Losi, Radiolink/Surface, Radiolink/DumboRC, V2x2 and Flysky.
What I really need is access to the cars/boats/motorcycles/... (at least the TX+RX) so I can reverse them. Usually people are sending me the hardware and I send it back once done (at their charges), purchase the model and send it to my attention, or make a substancial donnation (50% or more) so I can buy it.
Also note that I do already have good contact with RadioMaster and Jumper.

Sorry to hear that you're having difficulties at home. Family is a much bigger priority than designing toys.

Hello!
I thought I would come back and check in and see how everyone is doing.
I was cuirous if you guys are back into the swing of things are perhaps we can get this idea rolling again!

I'm open adding surface protocols, but I need the transmitters and associated receivers (or models).

I might be able to get you a few to start.
It would be easier if i could loop in my friend Ke Shan Hui who does alot of work at mxo-rc. He has disected alot of protocols that we can update the multi module with. I just don't know if he would want an agreement in place for lending his work. I'll have a talk with him

I am interested in this as well - I think there are two tasks here, one is to identify what R/C cars/trucks/crawlers are already supported by figuring out what protocols they use, and the other is adding new protocols that are not yet supported. I just noticed that the Axial SCX24 proto is already supported, I am going to try setting that up with my RadioMaster Boxer.
