The New 2.4 GHz Weatronic systems

The new weatronic® 2.4 Dual FHSS Radio Control System.

Double Safety has a name

The wish of every RC-pilot is - to have the most reliable RC-link.
With the all new weatronic® 2.4 GHz FHSS Dual RC system our development team offers you the most possible in reliability for your Radio Control system.

  • weatronic® 2.4 GHz Dual FHSS stands for Dual Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum in the 2.4 GHz ISM-Band.
  • weatronic® 2.4 GHz Dual FHSS transmits and receives on 81 continuously hopping frequencies at a rate of  1/100 sec. Transmitter module and dual receiver are synchronized and follow the same algorithm.
  • Turn on the system, take off, fly, and land –that’s all you need to care about. 120 or more systems can be operated at the same time. Interferences are basically impossible.
  • What is the range? - As far as you can distinguish the flight attitude of the model.
  • weatronic® 2.4 GHz Dual FHSS is an all new development of our engineering team – patents are pending. 

The weatronic® development team has implemented the most possible in safety that can be utilized out of the wide band technology. That is why we did not use complete  IC modules that were developed for other applications.

The task at hand: European regulations allow no more than 100 mW  EIRP *transmitter power output. At the same we want to guarantee a safe and reliable system. Only one transmission technology would stand up to the task: The FHSS-technology. FHSS stands for Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum.
The weatronic® system uses the 81 available numbers of channels. Depending on the country, mostly all 81 channels can be used. They are normally used in a rapid random succession.
weatronic® has based the new 2.4 GHz Dual FHSS -RC-system on the adaptive frequency hopping technology, similar to the industry standard shared by Bluetooth® . 81 channles (frequencies) are used with a bandwith of 1 MHz. Channels that are found busy or disturbed are excluded at the time being until they are free again. In addition weatronic® also uses a forward error correction system which further enhances the safety of the system.
weatronic® 2.4GHz Dual Receivers have two completely independent circuits. They provide redundancy and complete true spatial diversity, supported through the use of one antenna for each receiver. This enhances safety through avoidance of blocking, dead zones  and - or fading. 

 


The integrated on-board-electronic system

weatronic® constructed a new parallel product line based upon our 2.4 Dual FHSS technology. The integrated on board electronic system for big models, jets, gliders and helicopters will be available in five versions:

  • Dual Receiver 2.4 Dual FHSS 12-22 R 
  • Dual Receiver 2.4 Dual FHSS 12-22 R Gyro II 
  • Dual Receiver 2.4 Dual FHSS 12-22 R Gyro III 
  • Dual Receiver 2.4 Dual FHSS 12-22 R Gyro III + GPS 
  • Dual Receiver 2.4 Dual FHSS 12-30 R Gyro III + GPS

We enhanced our strong double power supply, well known from our 35 and 72 MHz Dual Receivers, to handle the strongest digital servos being on the market. Now eight independent power circuits deliver each continuous 4.0 amps - altogether 32 amps - with a regulated voltage of selectable 4.8 or 6.0 Volts. New: two-axis respectively three-axis-gyros on board are now fully programmable heading lock versions. A Large Aluminum heat sink in the bottom of the housing helps dssipate heat.

Dimension: 120 x 75 x 30 mm

The 12-Channel Transmitter Module

The weatronic® transmitter module is mounted in a flat housing and will be fastened to the transmitter with adapter fittings. These are available for all transmitters with changeable HF modules (72MHz). A patch wire and an adapter housing, similar to the original HF-module, connects the 2.4 GHz Tx module with the transmitter. Should the HF module consist of a print board inside the TX-housing, a replacement print board is used with the patch wire routed outside to the transmitter module.

 weatronic® 12-channel transmitter module

The weatronic® module transmits and receives 12 channels through two patch aerials on the front side of the Tx module. It logs all the transmitted and received data on a micro SD card which can be read out with the weatronic® GIGA control software. The data can also be viewed "live" when connected to a computer or laptop during operation. Acoustic and visual signals (earplug and a red LED on Tx module) warn the pilot  when preset values of battery voltage, range or temperature, both from receiver and transmitter exceed the limits. The weatronic® system works as a frequency hopping spread spectrum with 81 channels (frequencies).The transmitting power is 100 mW EIRP*. The system complies with ETSI and FCC regulations.

 * Equivalent Isotropic Radiated Power

 


Dual Receiver 2.4 Dual FHSS Micro Class 

micro-12 solo-1.jpg

This all new small high end Dual Receiver is suitable for middle size and small models and helicopters. It has very high sensitivity and is very robust against interference. Programmable failsafe for each channel via transmitter, two aerials.

The Software GIGAControl can be used to program every servo outlet just as in the big Dual receiver models - R. All 12 outlets can be programmed to be used e.g. on a 7 channel transmitter. Slow function, sequencing etc. are all available.

Firmware update via USB adapter cable, newest generation of 32-bit-microprocessors used, double watchdog function, shielded servo exits against interference, heavy duty PCB, signal voltage 5 Volts, operating voltage 3.8 - 9 Volts, external electronic switch/regulator. Available in 3 versions:

  • Dual Receiver 2.4 Dual FHSS micro - 8 channel
  • Dual Receiver 2.4 Dual FHSS micro - 10 channel
  • Dual Receiver 2.4 Dual FHSS micro - 12 channel

Dimensions: 55 x 35 x 19 mm

Weight: 25 g
