Playing with my new Manoi

Takahashi's design (robo-garage.com), Kondo servos and controller, and kit production by RC company Kyosho brought to life PF01.

Seems to be charging fine, I used an external 12DC power supply and fed it into the 12DC (nominal 13.8V) input of the Manoi charger.

All the lights and buttons work and i've hooked up a battery which seems to be charging.

A bit nasty to daisy-chain PSU's but it seems to work ok.

Hooray, I was starting to run out of juice in the battery pack and didn;t fancy waiting for a new charger to arrive. :)

I still havent found one, I use my regulated power supply set at the right current with a wall timer to shut it off. Crude but effective.

10.8V is such a git of a voltage to cater for...
