Default NEW PowerBox Champion RRS

Well Guys,

I picked this up at Joe Nall the other day.

Looks like PowerBox has did it again and come up with another PowerBox Unit to add to their selection of power units. The PowerBox Chapion RRS.
This unit is in the Royal's case, but has the Champion and RRS Units all in one neat packaged installation. It offers the same programing as the earlier Champion model and uses the same programer to program the 3 servo matching channels. It also has the RRS capabilities of using two rcvrs for redundancy and switching between them to the strongest received signal. Along with a display for the info provided. I haven't powered it up yet and will be installing in the plane later this week. I will be using it to change over my next plane over to 2.4.

I already use the "Royal" and "Champion" units with the RRS. I myself am sold on this Idea, and have never had any problem with them. Now this will help with the next install that I had planned on adding the RRS to. One nice package to work with now.

Anyone looking for a used PB Champion ?

Not sure, but wished they had. Although using only one servo in the elevators that this unit will go into. That was a question I forgot to ask.

No

This was the first one brought over by Emerish from Germany. Right place at the right time.
