Microdrive Advanced Motor Control for
Electric Model Aircraft

Features

• Auto arm feature. No need for complex setup, the controller
   notes the position of the throttle when it is armed and works
   everything else out - automatically! The unit will not
   arm at all unless transmitter signal is on and at low throttle
   position.

• LED Indication indicating unarmed, armed but off, drive and full on,
   conditions.

• Audible Arming Pulses. Even if you cannot see the LED you still know
   when the unit has armed as three audible pulses are emitted from
   the motor.

• Acceleration delay. To reduce stress on batteries, motors and
   gearboxes, motor speeds are changed progressively.

• Low On Resistance for cool, efficient operation using state
   of the art International Rectifier mosfets. Microdrive current ratings
   are continuous ratings. Microdrive controllers can take short-term
   overloads twice their continuous ratings.

• User Selectable Brake for all units.

• User Selectable BEC for all units.

• Advanced Spurious Signal Protection and shutdown on lost signal.

• Undervoltage cut out with 15-second override for those emergencies
   during landing.

• Lightweight construction using surface mount technology

Microamp. Current Measurement for
Electric Model Aircraft 

• Microamp is a cost effective ammeter designed for use with
   electric powered aircraft.

• Microamp is a valuable tool for optimising propeller choice
   checking batteries, choosing fuse ratings and verifying all
   components are being used within specification.

• A33 model measures current up to 50Amps in ten 3.3Amp steps.

• A50 model measures current up to 50Amps in ten 5Amp steps.

• Microamp is factory set to measure average current but may
   be configured to measure instantaneous current. Measuring
   instantaneous current the ripple current may be measured.
