DESCRIPTION
The E2452 is a standalone lost RC aircraft
beacon module which produces a loud
beeping sound after a programmed time
delay has elapsed or when triggered from a
spare receiver channel. The programmed
time delay varies between 1 to 72 times 20
minutes after being powered. This allows
aircraft to be flown for regular flights before
being reset unless the aircraft does not return
in time such as due to a crash. Alternatively,
the beeper can be enabled using a spare
receiver channel prior to the time delay
elapsing. Unlike other lost aircraft beepers,
the E2452 module does not depend on a
possibly non-functional receiver to power
the beeper after a crash. The E2452 module
instead uses a self-contained battery to sound a
beeper for 1 second on and 10 seconds off to
prolong battery life for over 24 hours while a
search is in progress. A battery monitor beeps
between one and five times to indicate battery
strength. The modular form also minimizes
the chance for damage after a crash. The
beeper is very loud thus increasing the chances
of recovering an aircraft in dense bush. The
module can be attached and transferred to any
aircraft.
