5.8 Battery Menu
The top portion of the battery menu display indicates the RX Battery Voltage, ECU Battery Voltage and
the current (in Amps) being consumed from the ECU battery.
In the center of the display menu there are two settable param
eters, “Battery
Capacity” and “Battery Type”. The selections for Battery Type are “LiFe” or
“LiPo”, capacity should be set to match the ECU battery.
Press reset “R” every time you fully recharge your ECU battery and it will
indicate remaining capacity, it is recommended not to fly with less than 25%
remaining capacity.
On the bottom of the display is a fuel consumption calculator, and was designed
to transmit remaining fuel data back to the pilot on systems equipped with
telemetry.
To set the fuel consumption calculator, enter the fuel tank capacity in milliliters
units and fly a normal flight, at the end of the flight check the remaining amount
of fuel in the tanks and enter the value in the “Consum_Correction”.
The ECU will calculate your remaining fuel in tanks with a +/- 5% accuracy.
If a taxi tank is being utilized and it is desired to reset to 100% capacity after disconnecting the taxi tank
and prior to take off, there are two ways to achieve this:
The preferred method is accomplished by moving the throttle stick from idle to full and back to idle
very quickly, (i.e. in less than one second), this movement will not increase turbine RPM
’s and it
will set the tank capacity back to 100%.
Another
method is selecting the “Batteries” Menu on the HDT, highlight “Fuel” and press “R”
5.9 Alarm Display
This menu displays the two basic alarms types; Stop Alarms and Info Alarms, additionally in the bottom of
the display there are two Status Information lines, the top Blue line are Turbine Status codes and the
Bottom Red Line are the Alarm status messages
5.9.1 Stop Alarms
Stop Alarms appear when the problem was significant enough that the ECU
command the turbine to stop during a run cycle.
“
RPM_Sens
” indicates an RPM sensor failure.
“
Low_Rpm
” indicates that the RPM dropped below the minimum programed
RPM.
“
Com_Error
” indicates a communication error between the Turbine electronics
and the PowerPack.
“
Fail Safe
” indicates that the RX signal went outside the programed limits.
“
Rx_Error
” indicates complete loss of the pulse signal from the receiver throttle
channel.
“
Fuel_Error
” indicates that fuel delivery was interrupted, for example a bubble
in the system.
