Servo tester into ppm encoder

Hi, I was wondering if anybody can help me.

I am trying to understand and put together a hand held remote for an electric powered paraglider winch.

As my understanding is a servo tester output has a PWM signal, is it possible to input a servo tester PWM into the DIY drones PPM encoder then feed the PPM into a 2.4ghz Corona TX module, this will all make a 1CH transmitter.

Thanks
Gareth

I am posting a one channel ppm encoder on my web page http://www.pikoder.com/SingleChannelEN.htm which very likely does what you are looking for. Gregor

Wow that's great such a tiny package as well. All I need to do now is learn how to program the chip with the code, have you any pointers? Many thanks

You may want to google for 'pic programming device' and would receive a list of various ways for programming the controller. Since programming chips is not always an option I would also ship samples - if you are interested then please sent me an email and we can look into this option. Gregor
