Introduction 

The  VSpeak  ECU  Converter  for  HORNET  ECUs  is  emulating  the  IO-BOARD  and  the 
TERMINAL. Data, which is  shown on the  STATUS DISPLAYs  of the TERMINAL can be 
sent via telemetry to the radio. To avoid unwanted electrical effects between the ECU and RC-
system the VSpeak ECU Converter is galvanically isolated via optocouplers. 

The  ECU  Converter  can  interpret  and  transmit  data  from  the  HORNET  III  and  older 
HORNET II ECU. 

The VSpeak ECU Converter can be software-updated by the user. 

The current version has been tested with the following ECUs/Versions: 

HORNET II  V7.1B 

HORNET III  V2.5A 

60 mm 

22 mm 

12 mm
