im trying to build a large scale aircraft carrier that is fully functional. launch aircraft, fire guns and such. And im trying to work out a control system. has to be wireless as ship will be out in open waters and underwater debris would snag lines. plus i do not like wired ones IFI VEX Pro Victor 884 and 885 the speed controllers i will be using. so i need a a hub to control all of them plus the other servo's "estimated at 50-60" and small motors "estimated around 20".
What i need to work on at this moment. is how to control the ESC's and communicate with a laptop on shore. would also like to keep expansion room available to start adding other systems with out having to install more parts immediately. so for first step i just need to communicate at range and control those ESC's. I'll be adding more systems as i finish each step. Thier will be a lot of systems added over time. the ship is 18 foot x 5 foot flight deck. and 10 foot x 3 foot hull. with 2-3 foot depth of hull.
Im trying to keep this simplistic and cheap as possible tough order i know but can try lol
