Improving safety for IC powered models
Regulated LiPo supplies provide a constant voltage supply to your RC system
at low weight. However, they do run the risk of sudden regulator failure
leaving you with no control and, with no servo power, defeating the receiver's
fail-safe system. With IC models this means you can have the throttle
stuck wherever it was when the regulator failed! ThrottleSafe protects
against this eventuality by shutting the throttle servo using its on-board
reserve battery should the regulator supply drop too low or fail completely.

- Throttle fail-safe even for total RC system power failure (e.g. regulator
open circuit failure)
- In-flight low voltage warning by throttling back to idle for 1
second every 30 seconds.*
- LED voltage indicator*
- Fail-safe in case of throttle signal loss with timed hold-at-idle
followed by engine cut for persistent signal loss *
- Latched supply fault and signal loss indicators.
- Shuts throttle on normal radio turn off - inhibits engine starting
with radio off.
* (these features can be adjusted via optional PC interface)

Improving safety for electric powered models:
BEC failures can be very expensive. When faulty, BECs may place close to
the full battery voltage onto the RC system burning out your receiver, servos
and gyro - and leaving you with no control over the model! BECSafe protects
against this as well as under-voltage and total power loss failures in BEC
powered systems. |
Size 35 x 24 x 9mm 11g

- Protects RC system from over-voltage should BEC fail short-circuit
- switches RC gear to your reserve battery to maintain control.
- Maintains RC supply by switching to your reserve battery should BEC
voltage drop too low or fail completely.
- utomatically checks BEC output before passing it to the RC system.
- Automatically sets over-voltage and under-voltage trip points to suit
BEC output.
- BEC OK and BEC failure indicator LEDs
Optional reserve battery not included - typical requirement 600mAh
NiMH. 4 or 5 cell depending on normal BEC voltage
Current capacity: 10 amps. Low voltage loss (typically less than 0.1v
with 5 amps load). 35mm x 26mm x 9mm 12g
