May dig out the Pixhawk and load the rover software just for a laugh. What’s the worst that could happen...?!?!?Make the whole experience hands free. Program point a and point b and push a button...
Of course not! You're still making steering inputs. I would say using a gyro or tech that would steer itself is a more apt comparison. I just don't want the speed run hobby to become so based in the car setup and not the driver skill that it becomes all about $$. This equalizes throttle control so, if you can steer and dial in suspension, all you have to do is drop a lot of cash for a Neu or a Cordova, an XLX2 and some top-of-the-line batteries and you're off to the races. Can you understand where I'm coming from?Do you look down on my use of steering dual rate to minimize travel during a pass? It’s really the same thing.
That was my point too. You can do ESC and RX expos but maybe not to the degree needed for a full speed pass. This device just does the same thing in a more controlled and predictable way. It is punch/expo 2.0.I'm a little surprised that it's not a standard programmable feature in a TX, should be easily doable.
Yes i think they will be very popular.I’m honestly starting to liken it to an automatic transmission with launch control in a real car than a bypass of skill, even though that’s how I started out feeling about it. At the end of the day I’m all about more speed, and since people are having great success with them I’ll probably jump on board
Use throttle or launch curve if your radio has that function. If you run the XLX you can also set the torque and throttle curve as desired. A few runs using either or both of those gives you the run data and ability to tweak using accurate figures rather than an blank potentiometer.I’m honestly starting to liken it to an automatic transmission with launch control in a real car than a bypass of skill, even though that’s how I started out feeling about it.

Hi, this is going to sound crazy. But I converted my Arrma Granite into a Lawnmower.May dig out the Pixhawk and load the rover software just for a laugh. What’s the worst that could happen...?!?!?
I am not familiar with Pixhawk specifically. Yet plenty of youtube tutorials:But I want to add some automation or make a custom controler.
So I was thinking of getting a Pixhawk and connecting it up to the car.
I have no idea about Pixhawk or how it works etc etc or whatever else I could need.
Can I ask that you give me some advice or I could talk to you about it?
I initially just added a weedwacker to the front of the Arrma granite here.I am not familiar with Pixhawk specifically. Yet plenty of youtube tutorials:

I am thinking of hijacking a cheap/broken vacuum/mower bot myself to use for my weedwacker tank.

Having it run on gps is one thing, having it avoid trees, dogs, ect is an other... Your lawnmower looks a lot safer than mine though
