RC Altimeter #3 PRO

RC Altimeter #3 PRO was designed to provide a lightweight, compact device for measuring and recording altitude, vario, battery voltage, temperature and servo pulse over time to microSD card and to transmit all this parameters to the ground via 433MHz band.

The concept is an upgrade from our old system (RC Altimeter#2 PRO) with better RF module for longer range and a different storage memory (microSD card) with bigger memory for longer flights. It was designed specifically for use in onboard radio controlled (R/C) aircraft, however it is also very useful in many other applications.

RC Altimeter #3 PRO provides in real time currently altitude, maximum altitude achieved in flight, vario (climb rate), battery voltage and number of interferences detected directly on the field, via telemetry link on RC T2000 module. With RC GPS module, it will also transmit ground speed, distance from home position (R/C pilot), latitude and longitude and will record all required GPS data (date, latitude, longitude, QNH, HDG and ground speed) to see your flight in 3D with Google Earth or analyze it with special software like SeeYou. Speed graph will be shown on PC if you have RC GPS module connected to it when flying.

Its key features are:

  • Lightweight at only 12 grams with telemetry and JR cable
  • Small (33 mm x 20 mm x 9 mm)
  • With RC T2000 module it will work as variometer with audio tone
  • Records data to microSD card for later review
  • 64Mb microSD card included for many hours of flying
  • FXJ switch function integrated
  • supports 70 channels for telemetry with 25kHz spacing
  • USB PC interface for firmware updates
  • Export data to JPG image, KML (Google Earth) file and IGC (SeeYou) files
  • Accepts wide range of input power: 4 – 20 volts DC.
  • Power it from your aircraft receiver
  • Every unit is tested in pressure chamber for its accuracy
  • Transmits measured parameters in real time

With RC GPS module it will:

  • Transmit additional information as ground speed, distance from R/C pilot, latitude and longitude
  • Record all GPS data required, so you could later see your flight in 3D with Google Earth or SeeYou.

RC T2000

Is telemetry system for use with RC Altimeter #3 PRO logger. With this system you can track altitude of your R/C plane in real time. You can track current altitude, maximum altitude achived in current flight, vario, battery voltage, temperature and number of interferences in real time and it has variometer audio tone for lift and sink. It has also voice announcements for altitude, vario, battery and flight time. Voice timer function integrated for solo F5J, F3K, F3J competitions.

Its key features are:

  • Voice announcements for altitude, batery and flight time
  • Variometer with audio tone for lift or sink
  • Alarm signal for low battery of your R/C aircraft
  • Voice timer for solo competitions
  • Sets all setting for RC Altimeter #3 PRO
  • Onboard LiPo battery for up to 8 hours working time
  • Two way digital transmission with 70 channels at 25KHz spacing
  • Set RC Altimeter #3 PRO to zero from RC T2000 – opening of canopy is not needed any more!
  • Rugged casing
  • Long range – more than 1 km

RC GPS

This is a GPS receiver that allows RC Altimeter #3 PRO to record GPS data for later 3D flight review with Google Earth. If you use it with RC T2000 and RC Altimeter #3 PRO you will also have real time information how fast your plane is flying and how far away it is.

Its key features are:

  • Lightweight at only 5 grams without cable
  • Small (19 mm x 19 mm x 7 mm)
  • Plug & play
  • Current consumption 40mA
  • 20 channels parallel
  • Built-in high performance SiRF Star III Low power chipset

RC Altimeter #2 BASIC

RC Altimeter #2 BASIC was designed to provide a lightweight, compact device for measuring and recording altitude over time and to flash out maximum reached altitude and battery voltage. The concept was taken from designing and developing instruments for glider planes and it is based on an altitude sensor, used in FAI flight loggers.

It was designed specifically for use in onboard radio controlled (R/C) aircrafts, however it is also very useful in many other applications. It also provides recorded altitude data to the PC, through USB interface. With RC GPS module, it will record all required GPS data (latitude, longitude, QNH and ground speed) to see your flight in 3D with Google Earth. Speed graph will be shown on PC if you have RC GPS module connected to it when flying.

Its key features are:

  • Lightweight at only 9 grams with JR cable
  • Small • 37 mm x 19 mm x 7 mm
  • Onboard LED to flash out maximum altitude achieved in flight, and battery voltage
  • Records altitude data for later review
  • FXJ switch function integrated
  • 64kb of memory
  • PC interface for configuration, firmware updates and data download / review
  • Export data in *.txt format or as JPG image
  • Accepts wide range of input power: 4 – 20 volts DC.
  • Power it from your aircraft receiver
  • Every unit is tested in pressure chamber up to 950m for its accuracy
  • Later upgrade to PRO version is possible
  • USB interface

With RC GPS module it will:

  • Record all GPS data required, so you could later see your flight in 3D with Google Earth
  • Speed graph will be shown on free PC software

RC Timer

RC Timer was designed to replace mechanical timers in free flight models. It was designed for F1H category. This electronic timer provides precise timing to activate dethermalization using a micro servo.

Its key features are:

  • Small and lightweight at only 1 gram
  • 16 pre-programmed times
  • Precise timing
  • Low price
  • Low input current
