The SuperSwitch is a DSC style switch designed
for the demands of large scale aircraft. The standard switches
with their 22 gauge wires are just not sufficient for 1/3 scale
aircraft up. Even with dual receivers in the 40% and larger
planes the current draw from the battery through the switch
can be substantial during maneuvers. We have measured a digital
servo, unloaded, drawing 0.6 Amp when kept in continuous motion.
Image what the same servo is drawing under load and then multiply
that by the six to eleven servos you have in the plane. While
this may be momentary this is when you need the least voltage
drop to the servo as voltage supplies the servos’ torque.
Reduce the voltage the servo sees and you reduce the torque
the servo can supply.
The unique features of this switch is the 18 gauge wire on
the battery side with high-quality Deans connectors and the
dual leads on the receiver side. This wire and connector combination
allows you to mount your battery anywhere you want and you
don’t have to worry about voltage drops in long wire
runs. This minimizes the voltage drop cause by wire resistance.
At the high currents digital servos require from the battery
this can actually be substantial. We have measured a half
volt drop over eighteen inches of 22 gauge wire and one connector
at 5.0 amps. On the receiver side, again one or both leads
may be used but both leads is recommended so that your system
see the full battery voltage.
The leads provided will fit any radio system brand. The receiver
leads are JR style which will fit both Futaba and JR receivers.
Features:
Heavy, 18 gauge wire to battery terminals
Dual output connectors to receiver for low voltage drop
