Good thoughts and good work. Keep it coming!

Good catch. Definatly wouldn't want that. I am thinking to cover the inside of the pcb tray with .05 thin styrene. I am completely prepared to keep the styrene case if need be but am hoping to get it made from aluminum.... I'll just have to keep those concerns in mind.



Skyv.. Certainly 2.4ghz would be awsome, but as this is for my dad and it already has bookoo bucks going in it he will be fine with the 27mhz prefex remote which I have extras of to give him. But certainly your correct.
