T tipc New Member May 5, 2004 #1 Hi everyone, I am attempting to build an Automated Altimeter for a radio control aircraft (helicopter/hovercraft) and i was in need of some advice. Should i: A. Use an IR transmiter and reciever circuit. OR B. Use an Ultrasonic Distance Sensor (Like car reverse warning circuits) Any help will be welcomed. Thank you.
