-
Using audio/video recordings of actual aircraft and
vehicles as, our goal is to accurately replicate sounds and motions
by adding electronic components to scale plastic models
-
Animations come with a programmed sequence which
you can specify. For example, in multi engine aircraft with
lights, you can choose the order of engine startups and the order in
which the lights turn on / off.
-
Custom designed circuit boards eliminate excessive
wiring.
-
Only two small gauge wires are necessary to connect model to power
supply and switch

Pre 1945 Aircraft
- Aircraft models in service before 1945 Engine
startup, idle, run-up and shutdown sounds synchronized to
propeller rotation.
- Synchronized sound add-ons for the Tamiya Prop
Action Series
- Single engine startups
- Twin and four engine independent engine startups
- Inertial, Coffman and hand cranking sounds prior
to engine catching depending upon engine type
- Electricity generator sounds (GPUs, anlasswagens,
starter carts) when applicable
- Gun turret rotations
- Bomb bay door animations
- Magnetic or a slide switch starts the animation
|

Post 1945 Aircraft
- Aircraft models in service after 1945 Engine startups for propeller aircraft,
jets, helicopters
- Jet engines
- Exhaust smoke for
afterburners
- Turboprop engine startups
- Rotating radomes (see E2C Page)
- Opening and closing cargo doors
(see C-130 Page)

| Pricing The electronic raw components
are inexpensive as opposed to the programming cost of sound
synchronization and sequencing . Each sound set has a unique program
based upon the motors used, the propeller (or other object to be
moved) weight and balance. Prototypes are built to test
the circuits and gauge the space available and are occasionally
put on sale. All circuit
boards are custom designed and hand built . All programs
are copyrighted and all rights are reserved. |
