RCET 002: Basics of Electronics – Part II

Charge CaptureAl Tejera continues covering the basics in this second RC Electronics Podcast. Going a little further into DC electronics he discusses common battery ratings like mAh (milli-ampere-hour) and maximum C charge and discharge rates as applied to lithium polymer, Nickle Cadmium and Nickle Metal Hydride batteries.

Now that the basics are covered the show will feature a quick single electronics tip that will benefit anyone interested in RC. That means we won’t just be covering electric power systems but instead we will discuss a variety of topics like glow starters, servos, ignition systems, power distribution systems, speed controllers and more.

A written pdf covering both part I and II of the  basics in electronics may be downloaded here.

We mention our friends at the ATTF and InsideHeli podcasts at www.allthingsthatfly.com
