Ran across this a few months ago. Looks like it might work for adding your custom sounds to any compact flash card. not a direct fit, but with some ingenuity and a few switches, this might turn out to be a winner:P

That is an excellent find! Not a bad price either
It looks like it could also handle a couple of other duties like turning lights on and off depending on the track...and the SD card is a big pro to load it up with sounds and scripts The only thing I didn't see on teh site was any dimensions of the device...but extrapolating some info based on the SD card size (typical SD cards are about 1" wide by 1.25" long)..it looks like the player would be roughly 3.25" along the SD slot side by 3.25" along the bottom edge where the name is. Not bad for some of the larger scale ships I'd have to do a bit of waterproofing but all in all not a big deal. Power would be the biggest thing and it would be easy enough to rig a separate battery just to power the sound. I might have to add this to my "wish list" to get one day...I was thinking about putting some sounds on my Crockett and this might just fit the bill perfectly! |

I think with some creative ingenuity, this could work. But, you’re right. The size might be a problem for some narrower ships.

I'm not discounting it completely though for narrow ships For models like the Mr Darby and the Crockett there should be plenty of room for the board. But even in say a Lindberg Blue Devil some creative placement might get it to work... The Fletcher hull is about 2.5" from the keel to the deck at the deepest point in the hull and only 2" or so from port to starboard at the widest across the deck. But by come creative placement the board might fit if turned on its side and put 1/2 way in the superstructure and 1/2 way into the hull area
Now some really tiny models might not be suitable at all but I have a feeling most people wouldn't care as much about sounds from a 1/350 scale destroyer |
