Hi gang,
I wanted to see if I could get some help in choosing an electrical system setup. It will be for a 35 - 50cc 3d ship. Will be a DL50 no matter which plane I go with and 4 Hitec 5985 for flight surfaces and 1 5955TG for rudder and 1 5645MG for throttle. Spektrum DX7 and AR7200 rx. I would like to try to stay as light as possible while still maintaining some redundancy. Here are two setups that I was thinking of, please let me know what I should add or take away. 1st setup which I like for simplicity and cost and has some redundancy: Fromeco Wolverine switch (2 in 2 out) Fromeco Sahara Regulator Deans in 2 JR out set at 5.8v (which would support the rx and ignition) 2 x 2600 Relions Smart Fly ignition cutoff 2nd Setup: Smart Fly Power System Sport Plus w/ pin and flag and charge jacks and optical kill 3 x 2600 Relions Sahara Regulator w/ Futaba in JR out I am new to the bigger scale so any help would be appreciated. From the little that I know, I feel the first setup would be plenty for a 50cc plane and also provides redundancy with light weight. Last edited by NUTNDUN; 08-02-2008 at 06:35 PM. |

Would I be asking for trouble if I just went with one A123 battery for rx and one a123 batt for ignition, 2 switches and the smartfly optical cutoff. I know I would have the redundancy of two batts but is it really needed on a 50cc?

With 2.4 radio system, bat redundancy is a good thing.
Just give him a call, oor e-mail, it sure would have saved me some time with deciding what I needed. Mando......

It's just a 50cc plane. Don't overthink the power system, and DEFINITELY don't overweigh it. People are recommending power systems that you could use in a 40% plane!
Run dual A123 1100's through a wolverine switch into the rx and power the ignition off the same. This would be an 8 ounce power system with more than enough power. Want a little extra assurance? Plug in a Fromeco DC-up at under 1 ounce.
