    4-bit binary counters

    Thanks MikeHalloran :D I didnt think about that aspect, so when i`m done and being asked/interrogated about my design choices I can mention that :D

    4-bit binary counters

    Hi! Thanks for the replies! The door sensors are very basic- sending a "1" or a "0" depending on the state of the sensors. No calibration, but storage and display are needed. To be able to take the data and use it in statistics, graphs etc would be nice, but is considered a luxery and not...

    4-bit binary counters

    Thats the "easiest" way to do it, I agree. I`ve been asked to avoid a microcontroller if possible, and I`m not the worlds greatest programmer :D At the moment, using a microcontroller looks inevitable from the way I`m seeing it, but I`m open to alternative ideas :) Thanks! Kenny

    4-bit binary counters

    This is embarressingly basic, but my brain is fried from going round in circles. I have a set of wall sensors that all have individual binary codes that need addressed to step through each module and request the state of all the sensors on each module. The information is sent back to a computer...

    Modular PSU: noise considerations

    I have a computer PSU that I am thinking of making modular, because there are too many unused cables. I was thinking of going about it by cutting the wires close to the power block casing and ending the cables with 4-pin molex, or similar. I`m not perfect, so I`m assuming noise will be created...

    Tail plane design

    wait a sec..... ur right. i don`t own a 262. I probably never will. But i build model kits of them and other planes. And i want to do something a little bit different. On one of my 262 kits, i took out the cockpit, faired over the fuselage hole, lengthened the nose and painted it as a guided...

    well...excuse me for having an imagination!!!! :)

    ME-109 Project

    no i didnt! no i didnt! scurrilous!!!! :) rumours!!! Would love to see a `200 fly tho. oh yes! :)

    Tail plane design

    I never said i owned one!!!! if i did theres no way i would cut it up! Was thinking about whats known (in some places) as "padded Cell `46, where people think about what would have happened if the war hadnt ended when it did. As the 262 spent more time as an operational aircraft, designers...

    Tail plane design

    hey! i did say it was hypothetical!

    Tail plane design

    The whole situation is hypothetical because the situation never (and prob. never will) exist. The plane i was thinking of was a W.W.2 Me 262. It had a normal tail design, not a T-tail. Was thinking of re-locating about half the vertical tail. Even if your initial response was made pre-...

    Tail plane design

    Aircraft A is built as it usually would be. However, it then has to be housed in a low hanger and the vertical tail pushes its height over the height of the hanger. Could engineers remove a section of the tail and re-position it under the rear fuselage or would this severely affect the planes...
