Horn Sound

[whahooo]

Hello, is there any cheap & easy Horn Soundmodule for RC Cars?

I only find very expensive Soundmodules over 200 Bucks or cheap engine Sounds from China.

I've just added one of the cheap Chinese sound modules to my CC02. Granted, it doesn't sound anything like as good as something like the ESS products, but it cost about 75% less 

If you have a 3rd channel, you can have a horn function. Mine can be switched between a siren and lots of different horns, including what sounds like a train horn! I've got it set up to a simple "beep beep". I'll try and catch a video and post a link to what I've bought.

I fitted a Soundmodule in my Clod.

But its way to Loud to use it all the Time, so i disconnected the Module.

After reattachment the Sound was crooked.

You her the brakes a lot, if you let off the Throttle you hear the Brakes. Normally you only should hear the Brakes if you brake with the trigger of the transmitter is pushed forward.

Is there anything i missed? You can't calibrate the Module, you can only calibrate the ESC. The ESC is calibtated the right way and was never changed.

The first Times i tried the Soundmodule it functuned properly.

 

 

 

 

The Horn:

I just ordered a 2nd Soundmodule with a Horn included, maybe i put that in my Clod.

But i also want a Horn for my Sandscorcher.

Is there a Horn Sound with a Horn only?

I think i do not want an Engine Sound or the big Speakers of a Soundmodule in my Scorcher. (Even if the Herbie Theme would be a nice adaption to a Scorcher)

I just had a similar problem rewiring the clodbuster,,

I put it down to a dodgy switch on the esc so the sound unit was losing power.

Changed the switch on the ESC and it's ok now.

I´ve got a new Sound System.

Now i have a Question:

I do use Tamiyaplugs, so i can`t use these "Dean/Traxxas/whatever" Plugs. So how i get the Power for the new Soundemulator?

Is it Possible to attach the red Plug to the ESC directly?

The preivious Soundengine is plugged directly into the ESC.

 

 

[whahooo]

Ist it possible to use the Deans Plug with adaptors?

 

Battery Tamiya to Deans - Deans to Deans (batteryadaptor for the Horn AS Seen in the Picture) - Deans to Tamiya to the ESC.

 

 

Edit:

Or is it possible to change the female JST plug to a male JST Plug and power the Spaker directly from the ESC?

 

Edit2:

Just found that Adapter:

Hello again.

i installed the Soundmodule in my TL01 Toyota Ceilca.

I use Tamiyaadaptor, so the Soundmodule is clamped between the Battery and the ESC.

Sadly the Module works only for about 30 Seconds or until i pull the Trigger for full Throttle....

 

i use normal 7,2 Volt NiMh packs.

With the 8,4 Volt Pack in my Clodbuster the soundmodule was cutting off after a few seconds, so i wasn`t able to program it for my clod because i didn`t heared the full sentence of the instructions.

 

In my Ceilica the programming worked fine, the indoor testing worked fine, but the driving in the wild leads to cutting off the sound....

 

 

 

I would be happy to have a working Soundmodule. Even it`s the horn i really want to have.

I would love to have a "beep beep" Sound for my Scorcher or a "dixie horn" for my Clod.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Is there anything i could try to get that Soundmodule working?

PS:

It´s kinda funny that the 8,4 Volt Nimh makes more Problems than the 7,2 Volt Nimh.

But the Manual says "Inputvoltage: 6,5 - 16,8 2s-4s lipo"
