Re: Starting Gates

On the starter subtopic: I think an automotive door lock actuator would make a good starting gate controller that is actively resettable. Its next on my list.

For the timer inputs, I did a home brew opto pair at the top and bottom of a 16' test track and timed the difference between them. Since I don't have the start gate working yet, I will just release the vehicle manually for now.
