Sound Module with cover removed

Curiosity got the better of me so I removed the sound module cover to inspect.

There is no volume control that I recognise as such.

The cover was refitted.

Cabling of the module is straightforward and there is now additional information on the HK
website although reference is still made to volume control. Not sure where the heat sink is
either.

Information is located at “hardware and accessories/ audio systems and parts” in the files
section for the PNP Engine Sound Module System.

FINAL WEIGHT

Final weight of aircraft was 1620 grams with the Donkey style motor fitted.

Donkey style motor weight is 136 grams.

This weight includes the battery – see above – the pilot and the modifications effected as
described above including revised battery size and larger ESC.
