Product Features
Works with existing onboard receiver battery (3.6V – 8.4V).
Optimal adaptive glow with any glow plug type at any voltage.
Visible LED and audible alarm notify you that the glow plug is glowing.
The glow plug can be remotely ignited from your transmitter by using a receiver
channel (Gear, AUX, etc.) or optional push switch.
Requires a valid receiver signal to allow for remote glow plug ignition.
Enhances safety as it will not apply current to the glow plug if in stunt flight mode or if
the engine throttle is open This is achieved by using the program mixing function in
the transmitter.
Helicopter: Improved engine reliability by igniting the glow plug at low throttle positions
or when throttle hold is activated. This is achieved by using the program mixing
function in the transmitter.
Airplane: Improve low speed engine characteristics by igniting the glow plug
automatically at low throttle settings. This is achieved by using the program mixing
function in the transmitter.
The external buzzer, LED glow indicator, RC controlled switch and other functions are
optional according to user requirements. The remote switch unit is optional, and can
be left off the model when the unit is controlled from the transmitter.
A Micro Controller Unit (MCU) monitors all functions and helps to prevent possible
damage.
