Flight Ctrl V2.5

The !Flight-Ctrl V2.5 is now equipped with a new pressure sensor and a more powerful ACC sensor.
Now we have a significantly better height control and flights are possible up to 5000mtr.
The FlightCtrl V2.5 is shipped with:

  • already assembled cables for:
  • a PPM Sum signal receiver
  • and a Telemetry connection
  • already installed with the latest software
  • fully tested for functionality


INFO:
You can use the FlightCtrl V2.5 only with the MikroKopter Software since Version V2.00d !

TIPP:
Below you can download a finished setting for the FlightCtrl where all functions are already set.

New thing on the FlightCtrl V2.5:

  • new Air pressure sensor (with light / wind protection)
  • new ACC-Sensor
  • better altitude control
  • less sensitive to vibrations (all Axis)
  • Altitude sensor work now up to 5000m
  • LEDs on the switching outputs
  • Voltage up to 6S (25V)
  • Protection resistors to the servo outputs
  • 400uF for better voltage regulation on the power supply
  • Note: Not compatible with older firmware versions!
