Hello,
I want to see if I can create a device with a BasicStamp that can mix two channels of a R/C receiver.
I believe that somewhere in the Nuts and Volts articles is an example of using the BasicStamp to receive and re-sent the PWM from an R/C receiver.
My problem is that I seem to not know how to properly search for it.

I do not know if you have heard that Google has a "Google Desktop Search" program. Granted, this would take a lot of time to set up, but once you have a database of N&V articles, I think that you could do a search using a word or a phrase to look for what you want and need. I am not sure if this post gets you into the ballpark sort of speak.
Another option here is that since the Parallax downloads are in PDF format, you can use the Acrobat Reader to search the files. The Search dialog gives you the option to search a single open file, or all of the PDFs in a particular folder.
I have a BOE-BOT that I am controlling with R/C. I am mixing the input from two channels to control the BOT's travel. I posted·two posts·under "Projects" on about 8/24/05 intitled "Super BOE-BOT" and "Super BOE-BOT Code". Hope this be of help.

I found this look at APRIL 2002 : Here is the link
The first code should be an answer to you

I have Google Desktop.· Downloading ALL the Nuts and Volts would take some time and space.
I knew there was something that I just overlooked.
I found that there are TWO search engines at Parallax. One is the Forum search engine and the other is the Regular web site search engine. The Regular search engine searches all the the available downloads.
And finally, it always helps to ask. I just couldn't think of the right terms to use in a search. 'RC' alone gets you tangle in filters and time delays. 'Airplane' only found two articles.

So I suggest you first try to find all occurences (combinatory ? English is not my mother tongue..) of the context and play with those words.
Happy to help

When at the top of the Forums page look in the upper right corner for a small white box.
Type a few key words and click on the magnifier.
Also note the keywords in the post that it directs you to.
It took me a while to figure this out but it has helped me be much quieter on the forums.<Big Silly Grin>
