KAVAN Smart PRO SBEC ESCs - Instruction manual
Introduction
The KAVAN SMART PRO product line represents advanced AC motor controllers for use exclusively in RC model aircraft. With integrated telemetry and various user configuration options, the controllers offer high efficiency, low weight and precise motor control. The integrated powerful BEC offers a continuous output current of up to 15A and is suitable for even the most demanding applications. Full BEC circuit performance is available at any battery voltage within the controller specification (6-51V).
Features
- Small size combined with high power for motor control.
- High performance BEC switching circuit offers continuous current up to 15A (30A max). Overcurrent and overtemperature protection are included.
- BEC voltage adjustment in 0.1V steps.
- Over-voltage and under-voltage protection, over-temperature protection, protection against sudden motor stop.
- Adjustable current limiter.
- Fast and accurate Heli/governor mode with many adjustment options.
- Safety motor shutdown in case of loss of throttle impulse.
- Configurable acceleration, timing, electromagnetic brake, motor reversal, etc.
- Low acoustic noise due to high frequency switching.
- Automatic telemetry: Fport, configurable via Lua script. Alternative firmware Duplex EX, Hott, MSB, PowerBox P2Bus, S.Bus2, Spektrum SRXL2.
- Telemetry (depending on RC system): voltage, current, power, capacitance, temperature, speed, energy.
- Minimum/maximum telemetry values are recorded.
- Configuration via transmitter, PC software MAV Manager or external terminal (JETIBOX/SMART-BOX).
- Firmware update via USB interface.
- Languages: CZ/DE/EN/FR/IT.
