Same configuration as the AuRiCo module but made for controlling the rig from ground level.

AuRiCo module

The guts of GB's AuRiCo module. I want to make it possible to swap this module for an R/C module which will be exactly the same, connector wise. So the pinning must be the same as well. From right to left: 4 x 3 pins for the power supply, PAN servo, TILT servo and shutter servo or IR LED.

On the left there's a small 5 VDC power supply output for an optional videolink transmitter. Before the 5VDC is exited it's filtered since the servos might produce some ripple. That will most certainly cause annoying distortion on the video signal.

The case is 72x50x22 mm

Right the AuRiCo module, left the Remote Control module (which is nearly finished - only needs a small connector for the aerial). The pins have the same functions so that the modules can be swapped for both AutoKAP and control from Terra Firma.
