Product information
That is why responsible pilots and model maker choose weatronic ®<br />
Two redundant transmitting and<br />
receiving systems<br />
Our transmitter modules and receivers* are operating with<br />
2 independent transmitting and receiving systems that<br />
are permanently adjusting their data (redundant<br />
systems). As if in a restaurant the 2 waiters<br />
would have taken your order, have mutually<br />
controlled their versions and then in the<br />
kitchen both orders would have been<br />
compared before starting the stove.<br />
Individual<br />
as yourself<br />
Tuning your model with<br />
our GigaControl software<br />
you feel like a musician playing<br />
the piano and composing<br />
your own masterpiece. Starting<br />
with control features assignment<br />
you proceed via servo curves of your own<br />
to the sum channels, servo supply voltage and<br />
other features tuning your model like a musical<br />
instrument till it sounds just perfect!
Using 80 channels<br />
The more hopping frequencies you have at your disposal the safer is data<br />
transmission. It makes a great difference when only two ways are leading<br />
to my destination or my navigation is choosing the best route of 80 possible<br />
– and this at the rate of 100 per second!<br />
Data recording – a MUST in the real flying<br />
The least failures in the system could be identified, crash<br />
reasons would be clarified, flight characteristics and control<br />
would be optimised and the information of the stored<br />
thresholds gives you confidence. The automatic report saved<br />
on SD-card in every weatronic ® transmitter module and in<br />
weatronic ® receivers Gizmo as the basis of your professional<br />
knowledge.<br />
Every weatronic ® receiver has full<br />
telemetry capabilities<br />
You as a pilot determine the information. Depending<br />
on connected modules our receivers could capture all<br />
telemetry data, route them further and process.<br />
YOU determine which values, thresholds or other<br />
data you need in the cockpit – from air speed,<br />
temperature and voltage, signal strength up to<br />
climb or descent rate.<br />
