World Novelty: The weatronic® 2.4
Dual FHSS Radio Control System.
Double Safety has a name
The most reliable connection to the model – that is the wish of every RC-pilot.
With the all new weatronic® 2.4 GHz FHSS Dual RC system our development
team offers you the most possible in reliability of your radio 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 79 continuously hopping
frequencies at a rate of less than 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 systems or more can work 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 squeezed 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 most possible available number of
channels. Depending on the country, up to 79 channels can be used. All
these channels 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® . 79 channles (frequencies) are usde 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 spatial diversity,
supported through the use of two antennas. 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
-

-

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. Large alloy heat sink in the bottom of the housing.
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. Available for all
transmitters with changeable HF modules. A wire and an adapter housing
similar to the original part connects the module with the transmitter.
In case of installation inside the transmitter a printed circuit board
is used.
weatronic® 12-channel transmitter module for MC-24
The weatronic® module transmits and receives through two patch
aerials on 12 channels. It logs all the transmitted and received data
on a micro SD card which can be read out with the weatronic® GIGA
control software. An acoustic signal (earplug) warns the pilot when the
battery of the receiver has low voltage or the range is reaching the
boundaries. The weatronic® system works as a frequency hopping spread
spectrum with 79 channels (frequencies).The transmitting power is 100
mW EIRP*. The system complies with ETSI and FCC regulations.

Dual
Receiver 2.4 Dual FHSS Micro Class
This all new small high end Dual Receiver is
suitable for middle size and small models and helicopters. It has very
high sensitivity and very robust against interference. Programmable
failsafe for each channel via transmitter, two changeable aerials of
different lengths available.
The Software GIGAControl can be used to program every sero outlet just as in the big R receiver models. All 12 outlets can be programmed to be used e.g. on a 7channel 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
