4.2 System Batteries
Two independent power sources are required for the operation of the POWERPACK / ECU
.
The first is
taken from the radio receiver through the throttle servo connection; the second is the ECU
battery that
supplies power to the pump, starter motor, solenoids, ceramic igniter and HDT display. Use only the
recommended ECU battery, the battery types are LiFePo (A123 3s) supplied, or 11.1V 3s LiPo
Warning:
Reversing the polarity of the ECU battery may cause destruction of the POWERPACK / ECU
semiconductors or other components.
The
ECU battery does not need an on/off switch in the airframe since the ECU has an internal electronic
switch which disconnects it when the power to the receiver is switched off. However; it is recommended
to disconnect the ECU battery when the system will be stored for more than a month.
Note:
Make sure to charge your battery properly; it is recommended to re-charge your pack after 4 flights.
Always remove the ECU battery from the model before charging, always use the proper charger for the
battery chemistry (LiFePo), and lastly always verify the cell count programmed into the charger before
charging. Do not exceed a 2C (i.e. 2 x 3800 mAh) charge rate during charging.
Jet Central supplies and recommend 9.9v 3s LiFePo batteries, however 11.1v 3s LiPo may be used.
4.3 Receiver battery
Recommended Receiver voltage range: 5 VDC to 10 VDC
IMPORTANT!
It is recommended to use 6 VDC or higher voltage supply to power the receiver / ECU; this
will insure proper operation of the ECU electronics. Make sure to check your receiver and servo
specifications to ensure that they are compatible with this higher system supply. If a voltage regulator is
used; ensure it has the capacity to operate the completed system including servos under full loading
conditions without dropping its voltage regulation. Most modern receivers and servos are designed to
operate directly from two cell lithium batteries.
4.4 Radio Receiver
The POWERPACK / ECU is connected to the radio receiver like a standard throttle servo, receiving
throttle control pulses and power from the receiver battery supply.
