= Flight Ctrl V2.5 =

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

'''INFO:''' <<BR>>
You can use the !FlightCtrl V2.5 __only__ with the !MikroKopter Software __since__ Version V2.00__d__ !
<<BR>><<BR>>

'''TIPP:''' <<BR>>
Below you can download a finished setting for the !FlightCtrl where all functions are already set.<<BR>><<BR>>

'''New thing on the !FlightCtrl V2.5:''' <<BR>>

 * 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 7S (30V)
 * Protection resistors to the servo outputs
 * 400uF for better voltage regulation on the power supply
 * Note: Not compatible with older firmware versions!
