Elite Falcon ESC

  • FALCON/IBEX ESC RELEASE NOTES: VERSION 1.10
    • Improved on-the-fly startups (When the propeller is spinning).
    • Optimized PC configuration.

Elite EX5 Serial Bus & Servo Channel Expander

  • EX5 RELEASE NOTES: VERSION 1.04
    • Improved compatibility with JETI EX Bus 24-channel mode.
    • Added PowerBox P2Bus support on Rx1/Rx2 inputs, including telemetry.
    • Added stabilization gain tuning. Using spare Bus channels, it allows you to assign up to 3 channels to control the stabilization gains of each model axis during flight. After you assign the channel operated e. g. by a potentiometer, the behavior will be similar to a standard gyro:
      • Potentiometer in the middle (0% ~ 1.5ms) effectively disables the stabilization since all gains will be set to zero.
      • Potentiometer to the left (< 1.5ms) activates the “Heading Hold” mode. o Potentiometer to the right (> 1.5ms) activates the “Normal” mode.
Gain Tuning

    • Improved compatibility with JETI EX Bus 24-channel mode (in connection with EX5, SE6 or additional SE4 devices)
    • Added PowerBox P2Bus support on the Rx input, including telemetry (voltage/temperature).
    • PC Configuration support using the MAV Manager software has been implemented. Use MAV Manager version 1.6.0 or later.

Let Model DG-600 Scale Sailplane w/Power Pod Launching System

On By hajek

The Let Model is well known throughout Europe for their excellent craftsmanship and this model is another excellent example. Scale, full composite DG-600 comes with many of the “custom” details like the tow release in the nose, the scale retractable landing gear with working doors, tail wheel, the full cockpit with instrument panels, and the canopy with scale-like hatch latches and sliding vents. For operation simplicity we have added scale like power pod pylon with brushless motor and folding spinner/propeller assembly. The power system is fully monitored using Jeti telemetry sensors.

With its fiberglass fuselage and carbon fiber reinforced, hollow molded wings the 1/3 scale DG-600 can handle full day of soaring as well as complete aerobatic routine. The careful use of composites creates a good light structure that will hold its shape for a long time.

DG-600 17m (1/3 Scale)
Wingspan: 5.67m (223”)
Length: 2.28m (89.5”)
Weight: 15.45kg (34 lbs.)
