I'm not sure what frequency

I'm not sure what frequency you need to operate on in Sweden. If you need 35,40 or 41 Mhz. then look at this web page]http://at.robbe-online.net/cgi-bin/rims_at.storefront[/url]

The 75 Mhz. robbee receiver needs to be modified for 8 channels. You will also need a "Y" adapter cable to use the 8th channel. If you need to operate on 75 Mhz. try ]http://www.shipsnthings.com[/url] or

good luck

Hi
Thanx for your reply.
The thing is on the robbe homepage they are a lot more expensive then subconcepts and I have sent them 2 mails in 3 weeks without any reply what so ever.
I have mailed both subconepts and shipsnthings but havent gotten a reply from them yet either.

Just order one from the

Just order one from the subconcepts website, you will probably get it faster than a reply message. LOL

However, when I emailed subconcepts before, I got fast replys. You might want to send another message, from a yahoo or hotmail email account.

Hmmm I've checked and legal

Hmmm I've checked and legal is only the 40mhz band =(
Is it possible to order specifik multiswitch modules?
I saw a couple of switches on the shipsnthings homepage but not really the ones that I want.
Is it possible to make them however you want or are you only allowed a certain nr of every unit for each modul?
Im kind of a newbie to electronics, not that many features with RC car

The best place I have

The best place I have found to look at the options for the F-14 radio is the robbe web page]http://at.robbe-online.net/cgi-bin/rims_at.storefront[/url]

Switch modules of several different kinds are available. A picture of some are on my Sub Committee web page. For each switch module that you add you will also need a decoder module. Each module uses one channel of the possible 8 of the radio. It is also possible to add “On-Off” or “On-Off-On” switches. Up to 4 can be added. In this case each switch will use a channel. What is it that you are trying to do that you cannot find a switch combination for?

A that was one very

A that was one very good question
Why didnt I ask that in the beginning?
Well I would like one switch to lower/raise the periscope.
On switch to maneouver the camera(in the periscope) left and right, switches to launch 6 torpedos, open/close missile hatch and 2 switches for the launch of the missiles.
I have bought the engel switch for the diving control.
Would it be possible to turn the switch for the camera horisontal? so instead of turning it up and down you can turn it left and right? or is it just better with a knob?
Im also considering to add some lights to the sub, nav lights, IR lights for the camera and perhaps some additional show lights.
As I said Im a complete idiot regarding the controll

First off I have no

[color=#000000]First off I have no experience with the torpedo and will therefore let someone else take that on. Although I admit it sounds like fun.

As for the radio part of it here goes.
The robbe transmitter expansion module 1-8101 sounds as if it might work for you. It has a mixture of Mom (momentary), On-Off-On and Rotary (proportional) switches.




Types of switches]

Ohh man http://www.subcommittee.com/forum/icon_smile.gif
now I

Ohh man
now I feel even dumber hehehe...
Yeah the torpedos are going to be cool, Im going to use the sub in naval warfare against armed ships, guess youve heard of them
But the torpedos aren't near as cool as the missiles are going to be if Im really going to go through with them....
They are going to be pretty expensive.
But you gave me a number to look for on the robbe homepage you think that those controls would give me what I need?
I don't need to control the lights individually,well I need 3 different switches for all the lights, one for nav lights(red-green), one for the IR(isn't that the light that only cameras can see?anyway thats what Im gonna use not sure its called IR), and one for the spots in the front just for showing people where the sub is when its dark.

[kd6hq]

Yes the module will control

Yes the module will control your lights and scope fine but like I said I will not attempt to answer anything about torpedos or rockets. If you decide on purchasing this radio you will find that you can control 3 light sets with only 1-½ switches or you can use 3 switches if you want.

Well not really.
The only place

Well not really.
The only place I found was the robbe online store, but I guess that they should be the cheapest place to buy them.
To bad that I have to have the 40mhz band
It cost about 70$ more than the 75mhz
