The IBEX product line represents advanced speed controllers for use exclusively in RC airplane models. With 

integrated  telemetry  and  various  possibilities  of  optional  user  configuration,  the  controllers  offer  high 

efficiency, low weight and precise motor control.

NSTALLATION

 

Fasten the controller in your model by the screws. Alternatively, you can use Velcro or double-sided adhesive 

tape for fixing. Connect the motor and receiver according to the schematic below. You may connect the motor 

cables in arbitrary order, as changing direction is done by exchanging any of the two cables (alternatively also 

by  the  “Direction”  parameter  in  the  configuration).  Turn  on  the  transmitter  followed  by  the  receiver  –  the 

receiver uses a dedicated battery. Now you can plug in the main flight pack.
