The New Jeti Electronic Dual Power Switch V-Cable 4A/12A (Mini Power Redundancy)

The Jeti V-Cable is a dual input battery isolator. The Jeti Mini V-Cable isolates two power sources (Two Receiver Batteries/Backup Battery and BEC) keeping your system operational if one of the power sources accidentally fails.

The V-Cable is designed for two independent 5V – 8.4V power inputs and supports up to 4A continuous current or 12A burst current for your connected devices. This unit is most suitable for light weight models, like electric or thermal duration sailplanes, in which you want to run two separate power sources. Please note that V-Cable does not include a regulator, output voltage is equal to the larger of two input voltages.

Building the Prelude 2.5E F5J/ALES Electric Sailplane!

One of the most impressive European made sailplanes that we have ever seen, the Prelude 2.5E flies as good as it looks. Gentle, smooth, and very long flights are the standards for this beauty. The careful use of composites with competition balsa, creates a good light structure that will hold its shape for a long time. The synergy of low weight and strong structure is very unusual in a production sailplane and can only be achieved with careful attention to design and construction. The entire model is constructed using free-flight techniques.

Top Model uses the latest construction techniques such as CNC milling and laser cutting. The wings as well as stabilizer are all balsa built-up with Carbon Fiber main spare and leading edge. The fuselage is gel-coated fiberglass with white finish. Whole model is covered with Ultracote. All control surfaces are hinged with adhesive tape. This fully built sailplane needs only basic assembly and motor/radio installation. The two piece wing and horizontal stabilizer are each easily removable for transport and storage. Each part is carefully hand-crafted with meticulous attention to detail. Value is simply incredible.

Great starter electric sailplane with easy building and smooth flights.
