Know before you buy
If your main power source fails, the capacitor instantly discharges its stored energy to keep your receiver and servos powered. This provides you with enough time to maintain control and execute a safe landing.
The unit is compatible with systems operating between 6V and 8.4V. As long as your receiver and servos fall within this voltage range, it can be integrated into most standard RC aircraft setups.
Switch mode allows you to manually toggle the backup power, while throttle signal mode automatically monitors your signal for power drops. Throttle signal mode is generally preferred for hands-off emergency protection.
At 60 grams, the impact is minimal for most mid-to-large scale RC aircraft. However, you should account for this weight during your center-of-gravity balancing to ensure flight stability.
Because it uses supercapacitor technology, it charges automatically while connected to your main power source. It does not require manual charging or special storage maintenance like a lithium battery.
