Installation

Secure the controller in your model with Velcro or double-sided tape. Connect the motor and receiver according to the diagram below. You can connect the motor cables in any order, as changing the direction of rotation is done by swapping either of the two cables (or by the "Direction" parameter in the configuration). Switch on the transmitter. Now you can connect the main flight battery and turn on the controller with the receiver connected.

Controller mode

It is possible to select from three basic controller modes:

  • Normal - the preset acceleration curve is always used when accelerating. This is the default mode for normal use.
  • Fast mode - the selected acceleration time is only applied when spinning from zero speed. Then the minimum possible delay (0.2s for zero to full throttle response) is applied.
  • Normal with reversal - behaves similarly to normal mode. In addition, you can select a throttle reversal channel that will control the direction of engine rotation during flight.
  • Heli/Governor - fast and precise constant speed control with many adjustable parameters.

Gas input signal

The controller expects positive pulses from the receiver with a maximum refresh rate of up to 400Hz. By default, when the endpoints are set automatically, the controller will work with the vast majority of RC systems.

In this case, a minimum throttle signal pulse is loaded after start-up. The maximum power is then dynamically adjusted when you first give full throttle.

If you need the exact positions of the transmitter lever, where the engine starts and where the throttle is full, you can also configure the use of manually entered endpoints.

Motor settings

Many motor parameters can be configured including acceleration, timing, gear ratio or number of poles. The gear ratio and pole count are important for telemetry and correct display of motor speed.

Acceleration affects the engine's response to the throttle channel. Reducing the acceleration time will speed up the engine response and give the pilot a sense of instant control during aerobatics. However, the engine consumes more power and the controller generates more heat. For most types of models, including electric gliders, layouts, EDFs, etc., we recommend a default acceleration of 1.0s. For 3D aerobatic flight you can go down to 0.5s or even less (with caution). You can also set the controller's "Fast Mode" in the General Settings menu for the fastest possible motor response.

Timing is determined by the type of engine and is usually recommended by the engine manufacturer. Timing also affects power and current consumption. A higher timing value can increase motor performance, but care must be taken to avoid overloading the system.

  • Automatic timing: timing is continuously adjusted by an internal algorithm. It is a universal solution compatible with most motor types.
  • 0°–10° timing: recommended for inrunners, i.e. motors with internal magnets.
  • 15°–20° timing: recommended for most outrunners (motors with rotating casing). It offers a good combination of power and efficiency.
  • 25°–30° timing: High torque motors with many poles require the highest timing.

The motor type should only be changed in some specific cases where the application requires it.

There are three options:

  • "Standard" motor type - recommended for most types and applications (default).
  • "High Torque" - if you have problems with motor synchronization during rapid acceleration, use this mode. Prerequisites: large motor with rotating casing and more than 20 poles, heavy propeller, large current peaks. We also recommend increasing the timing to more than 20°.
  • "High speed" - use this mode if your drive unit exceeds 250,000 eRPM (revolutions per minute calculated for a 2-pole motor).

Starting power is affected by the first few revolutions of the engine. If you are not satisfied with the automatic mode, you can set the engine to run more aggressively (positive values) or as smoothly as possible (negative values).

Brake settings

The electromagnetic brake is a standard feature of all controllers used in electric glider models. KAVAN SMART PRO controllers offer several additional parameters for fine tuning the brake function. You can use one of the pre-configured settings or you can freely adjust all brake parameters.

Setting options:

  • Off: The propeller rotates freely without braking.
  • Medium: transition to full braking force in 0.7s.
  • Hard: Transition from 50% to 100% braking force in 0.5s.
  • Manual: All brake parameters can be entered manually:
  1. Initial force (start of brake) - braking force applied from the moment the brake is applied.
  2. End force (end of brake) - the braking force applied after the ramp-up time has elapsed (usually the full braking force that brings the engine to a complete stop).
  3. Brake build-up - the time between the start and end of the brake. During this time, the braking force is constantly changing from initial to final power.
  4. Waiting time - the time between disconnecting the engine and applying the brake. During this time, the motor rotates freely without power.

Example: motor brake with the following parameters: brake start = 50%, brake end = 100%, ramp = 0.5s, wait time = 0.3s.

BEC circuit and its settings

In the General Settings menu, you can fine-tune the BEC circuit voltage in 0.1V increments. The controller contains a very powerful BEC that is capable of supplying a continuous current of up to 15A. However, if high power is required, sufficient cooling air flow must be provided. It is recommended that both throttle and telemetry cables are connected to the receiver to ensure high current carrying capacity.

Backup batteries

In case you want to use a small backup battery to cover voltage peaks of connected servos, you can specify its presence in the General Settings - Backup Battery menu. After setting the battery type, you must disconnect all power supplies from the controller and then reconnect them. The options are as follows:

  • "No" (default) - no backup battery is present and the BEC voltage is set to the value specified in the configuration. No external power must be connected on the receiver side or the BEC will not turn on.
  • "2S LiPo 8.4V" - on the receiver side an external power supply with a maximum voltage of 8.4V is assumed (see picture). The controller is not initialized if the voltage of the backup battery is outside the operating limits (or not connected). The BEC voltage is automatically adjusted according to the backup battery voltage, so there is no risk of uncontrolled currents.
  • "2S LiFe 7.2V" - external power supply with maximum voltage 7.2V is assumed on the receiver side. The behavior is similar to the 2S LiPo.

External switch

The KAVAN SMART PRO controller allows an external switch to be installed if required. However, the factory switch is not present in the base, so the controller/BEC switches on immediately after the flight battery is connected.

You can specify the type of switching element in the menu General settings - Switch type:

  • Mechanical (default) - the switch connects the yellow (signal) and brown (ground) wires of the switch/button cable. Reverse switching logic is used so that the controller will remain on if the switch remains disconnected
  • Button/Hall - the first long press turns the controller on; the second long press turns it off. LED indicates on/off status. If a magnet (or button press) is detected, the LED will flash. The Hall sensor can be purchased as an accessory for KAVAN SMART PRO controllers.
  • Electronic - this option allows you to connect an external electronic switch (Touch Switch, RC Switch, etc.). In this case, the switching device is always powered and the logic level of the signal wire determines the on/off state of the controller.

Propeller positioning

The positioning function allows the engine/propeller to be rotated to the exact position required for a safe landing, or is just convenient for the next flight. With a few external components (Hall sensor and small magnet) you can use this function and avoid the risk of damaging the propeller during landing. The magnet must be properly attached to the rotating part (engine or propeller) and the Hall sensor must be positioned in the fuselage so that the magnet is opposite the Hall sensor at the target position of the propeller. After enabling the positioning function via the controller menu (Propeller Position = "Hall Sensor"), also set the PWM positioning so that the motor spins slowly but smoothly. You can also change the duration of the actively held motor position (Position Hold), which is activated when the correct position is found. The Hold Position feature is useful in a retractable drive because it prevents the propeller from moving spontaneously during retraction.

To enable propeller positioning, connect the Hall sensor to the IN-B port on the controller.

Engine identification

Some brands of motors include an integrated temperature sensor compatible with KAVAN SMART PRO controllers. This sensor (T125-ID) can also be used as a stand-alone telemetry sensor with Duplex/Hott/S.Bus2/Fport telemetry support. In addition, it can be connected directly to the "IN-A" input port on the controller (see picture above). From this point on, the KAVAN SMART PRO controller will know the basic motor parameters (minimum acceleration, recommended timing, gear ratio, number of poles...) and also the current motor temperature. Some parameters will be reset automatically (gear ratio, number of poles), other setting items will be applied once you reset the controller to factory settings. The motor identification sensor is connected to the IN-A port on the controller.

Synchronous switching

"Synchronous switching" or "Active braking" is a function of the speed controller that reduces the heat generated by it during part-load operation. This mode is useful for aerobatic pilots who want not only fast acceleration but also fast deceleration. The engine instantly follows the throttle movement in both directions and the pilot is able to take control perfectly.

Current limiter

The current limiter is part of the safety features of the controller. It does not stop the motor at overcurrent, but constantly monitors the instantaneous current consumption and adjusts the motor output based on it. When this function is enabled, specify the maximum current allowed and the controller will immediately reduce motor power when the current threshold is exceeded. After the current returns to a safe level, motor power is restored.

Battery protection

Integrated battery protection is based on undervoltage detection and motor power reduction or complete shutdown. You can freely set the number of cells (or leave the automatic detection) and the value of the minimum voltage per cell. The supported battery types are NiXX (1.2 V), LiFe (max. 3.6 V) and LiIo/LiPo (max. 4.2 V).

Status codes

Status codes are displayed on the screen (JETIBOX/SMART-BOX) if any error event occurs. If any status code is activated, the red LED flashes continuously.

Available status codes:

  • Low Voltage (UL): the battery voltage has fallen below the threshold level specified in the Battery Protection menu and the controller has either reduced the maximum power or shut down the motor completely.
  • High voltage (UH): If you are using a soft battery or mains power supply, the voltage may rise above the initial level during braking. In this case, an alarm is triggered and all braking functions are deactivated.
  • High current (IH): current is higher than the maximum peak current defined in the product specification (e.g. 120A for KAVAN SMART PRO 80, 200A for KAVAN SMART PRO 130).
  • High temperature (T100, T110, T120): the temperature has reached above a safe level. The numeric value indicates the maximum temperature detected and the safety protocol that has been activated.
  • Commutation error (COM): A synchronization error was detected while the motor was running. This usually occurs when the motor stops suddenly or in the case of very fast acceleration on some specific power units. This error may indicate a serious problem in the motor-controller installation.

Heli/governor mode

The speed controllers include a fast and accurate speed stabilization function.  You can configure the governor mode in many ways to suit your preferences.

Make sure the propeller blades are removed before activating the constant speed mode. In the General Settings menu, select the controller mode to "Heli/Governor" and follow the options below:

  • Set the minimum and maximum speed of the main rotor according to your preference. As soon as you move the throttle beyond the idle position, the engine will slowly spin up until it reaches the target speed. These are calculated by the throttle channel position, where throttle off corresponds to "Minimum RPM" and full throttle corresponds to "Maximum RPM".
  • Set the Acceleration Start to make the engine start as smoothly as possible. You can set this time up to 60s. Start-up Acceleration is used when the engine is revved up from zero speed or when the quick autorotation exit function is deactivated.
  • Configure the autorotation save time and autorotation acceleration. The autorotation rescue function is used when you need to end autorotation quickly and prevent the model from crashing. In this case, move the throttle out of the idle position, "Autorotation Acceleration" is used to spin the engine until it reaches the desired speed. The "Autorotation Rescue" parameter determines the time after engine shutdown when the autorotation rescue function can be activated. When this time is exceeded, the standard start-up time is used.
  • Advanced settings: governor gains - (P)roportional and (I)ntegral. You can adjust these gains to fine-tune the governor's response to rapid load changes during flight maneuvers. Please make the changes only in small increments and verify the resulting behavior in a short test flight.
  1. Increase the P gain to eliminate small speed fluctuations during straight flight, e.g. hovering. If you hear unexpected motor/transmission noise (indicating rapid oscillation), reduce P gain by 20%.
  2. Increase the I gain to maintain precise speed during manoeuvres. If the engine speed starts to fluctuate noticeably, reduce the I-gain by 20%.
  • In Governor mode, fixed throttle channel endpoints are always used (standard 1.1ms - 1.9ms) and active braking is also enabled.

Reversing the direction of rotation

The reverse motor function is available for RC systems with bidirectional bus support (EX Bus, P 2Bus, SRXL2, S.Bus2, Fport). To control the direction of the motor, you must define an additional bus-transmitted channel on the transmitter. Both cables of the KAVAN SMART PRO controller (red and black) must be correctly connected to the receiver.

First, create another channel on the transmitter to control the direction of the motor. This channel should be controlled by a two-position switch.

Futaba/Spectrum:

Use one of the AUX channels and remember the channel number. It is not necessary to limit yourself to only the channels available on your receiver, as RC systems usually send more channels on the bus than the physical number of outputs on the receiver.

Example: if you are using a Spektrum NX6 and a six-channel receiver, you can still use channel 7 (AUX2) to control the reversion function over the SRXL2 bus.

JETI:

Create a new model function in the Model - Function Assignment menu and assign a free two-position switch to it. Then, in the Model - Servo Assignment menu, assign this function to one of the receiver channels (1–16). Again, you can also use channels that are not directly available on the receiver outputs (e.g. 13–16) as they will be transmitted over the EX Bus protocol without restriction.

PowerBox:

Create a new function for the model in the Function menu by pressing the "+" button and assign a two-position control switch to it. Select one of the available output channels (1–16). The position of the switch will be transmitted via the P2Bus to the speed controller.

To activate the motor reverse function in the controller, set "Controller mode" to "Normal/Reverse" and set the reversing channel from the previous step. You can also fine tune the brake settings and the waiting time before reversing when using the "Manual" brake type.

Check the function: As soon as you switch the direction switch, the controller activates the brake and after a short pause the motor starts to rotate in the opposite direction.

Telemetry and settings

Plug the red data cable into the sensor slot on the JETIBOX / SMART-BOX (or the corresponding receiver). Power it from a 4.5–8.4V battery. You can now safely configure the controller using the arrows on the terminal. If you are using an external (optional) switch connected to the controller, make sure that the controller is switched on.

KAVAN SMART PRO controllers are compatible with JETIBOX setting. The JETIBOX menu is divided into five sections:

Current values

- displays fresh telemetry values along with minimums and maximums

  • Available telemetry: voltage, current, capacity, speed, power (percentage), temperature.
  • If a Motor-ID chip is connected, the motor identification and temperature will also be displayed.
  • Reset Min/Max - press the left and right buttons simultaneously to reset all min and max.

General settings

- basic controller settings

  • Controller mode - basic controller mode (normal or fast).
  • Sound after start - select the melody to be played after the controller is initialized.
  • When idle - you can activate short repeated beeps to indicate a motor is energized.
  • Motor endpoints, motor start, full motor - settings related to decoding the throttle input signal.
  • Reset Capacitance - you can select at which point the capacitance and energy consumed are reset:
  1. After power-up - the capacity is reset after the controller initialization. However, the capacity from the previous run will be displayed initially until you start the engine.
  2. Voltage change - capacity is cleared when a battery with a similar (or higher) voltage is connected If the battery is connected to a battery with a higher voltage compared to the maximum voltage of the previous run. This means that every time you connect a fully charged battery of the same composition and cell count, the capacity will be cleared.
  3. Manual - capacity and energy are never reset and you must reset manually.
  • Language - you can choose the language of the JETIBOX screen.

Engine settings

- settings related to engine parameters

  • Direction, acceleration, timing, starting power, motor type, gear ratio, number of poles motor gear ratio - see chapter Motor settings.
  • Brake related settings - see Brake Configuration chapter.
  • Propeller positioning, PWM positioning, holding position - see Propeller positioning chapter.
  • Motor Enabled (0/1) - motor start can be enabled or disabled based on the logic state of a specific input "IN B.2" (connector pin from left to right: 1 = Hall probe input, 2 = motor enable input, 3 = 3.3V, 4 = GND). If you select "Vst.pin Log0/1", you must always pull back the throttle before starting the motor. On the other hand, if you select "Autostart Log0/1", the motor will start as soon as the logic value of the input pin allows it and the throttle position is above idle.
  • Switching - allows you to enable synchronous switching (active brake) or leave the controller in standard mode.

Protection

- setting the controller and battery protection

  • Low battery - behaviour when the battery is low. Either the engine power will slowly decrease or the engine will shut down immediately. The minimum safe voltage is calculated from the number of cells and the minimum voltage per cell.
  • Current limiting - enable this feature to prevent high current spikes and overloading the system.
  • Limit power at 100°C - you can adjust the maximum allowed PWM of the controller after its temperature exceeds 100°C. The model must be operational, but the temperature must no longer increase.

Service

- in this menu, you can view the version of the device and reset it to the factory default configuration

PowerBox Telemetry

Since version 1.09, the KAVAN SMART PRO controller is able to recognize the PowerBox P 2Bus telemetry protocol. Connect the telemetry cable (red connector) to the P2Bus port on the receiver. The transmitter will locate the connected sensors as soon as the receiver is switched on. The controller telemetry should then be available within 2.5 seconds. You can now assign telemetry values to any widgets and alarms on the transmitter's desktop. The available telemetry is similar to the Duplex EX telemetry (see above). Configuring the controller via the PowerBox transmitter is not available at this time.

Spectrum Integration

Since version 1.06, Spektrum telemetry support is integrated in a special firmware version. This alternative firmware offers SRXL2 telemetry and TextGen settings. The KAVAN SMART PRO controller is represented in the transmitter by two telemetry devices:

  • "ESC" displays battery voltage, current, BEC voltage, controller temperature, speed and output power.
  • "Flight Pack Capacity", which shows the consumed battery capacity.

Connect the throttle cable (black connector) to the Thr receiver port (1). For proper telemetry/setup operation, also connect the telemetry cable (red connector) to the Prog/SRXL2 receiver port. The controller provides only numeric telemetry by default. The text menu (TextGen) is only available after a special start-up procedure:

  • We assume that the gas and telemetry cables are correctly connected and the transmitter is switched on. Now set the remote control to the "Full throttle" position.
  • Switch on the controller either by connecting the drive kit or by switching on the external switch.
  • The engine will start, indicating the detection of a full throttle pulse. After 3 seconds, another beep will announce entry into the programming menu.
  • You can now fully withdraw the throttle. From the transmitter's main screen, scroll to the right and locate the TextGen menu. If the text menu is activated, the engine will never start to turn. To get the engine running normally again, you must exit the TextGen menu by selecting "Exit" on the main page.
  • The menu navigation is provided by the transmitter levers - the elevator lever moves the cursor up/down and the aileron lever changes the selected value.
  • Configuration changes are saved immediately after any value is modified.

Safety information

  • Always use the KAVAN SMART PRO controller in a dry environment and within the limits of the equipment specified in this manual. Never expose the device to excessive heat or cold outside the operating range.
  • Ensure sufficient airflow to prevent the controller from overheating.
  • Never exceed the maximum allowable operating voltage of the controller or the motor.
  • Do not increase the cable length between the controller and the motor. If you need to extend the wires between the regulator and the battery to more than 30 cm (total), solder several high-capacity Low-ESR capacitors (220-470uF) in parallel to the power wires as close to the regulator as possible. For each centimeter over the specified length of the cables, add 1uF of capacitance per 1cm of length for each ampere of current passing through. At 10cm over the limit for 100A current, connect 1000uF capacitors.
  • Always use high quality connectors in good condition. If there are any visible signs of wear, replace them.
  • Always remove the propeller before making any changes to the drive setup.
  • Never disconnect the controller from the battery while the motor is spinning.
  • Do not remove the packaging and heat sink from the unit or attempt to make any changes or adjustments. Doing so may result in complete destruction and denial of any warranty claims.
  • Always check the polarity of the connections. Never reverse the polarity - this could lead to complete destruction.

Firmware updates

Firmware updates for KAVAN SMART PRO controllers are uploaded from a PC via USB. Required programs and files are available at www.mavsense.com.

Install the MAV Manager software and USB interface drivers on your computer. Check the system requirements.

  • Make sure the flight battery is disconnected and the KAVAN SMART PRO controller is unpowered.
  • Connect the USB interface to your computer, start the MAV Manager - Updater and select the correct COM port.
  • Connect the KAVAN SMART PRO controller as shown below - use the red (telemetry) port. The controller will be automatically detected.
  • Select the correct *.BIN file and press the Update button.

Configuration via computer

It is possible to use the MAV Manager software (version 1.4.0 and newer) to conveniently configure all controller parameters, display real-time telemetry or backup the configuration. The program menu contains four buttons in the upper toolbar:

  • Reload - forces the configuration to be reloaded from the controller
  • Import - imports settings from a file. If you have several controllers and want to make all of them be identically configured, simply import the same settings file into each controller.
  • Export - exports the settings from the controller to a file. You can easily create a backup configuration that will be stored on your PC. After creating a backup, you can easily experiment with the controller settings and later revert back to the original configuration by pressing the "Import" button and selecting the original saved file.
  • Default settings - resets the controller to the factory default settings and reloads the entire

Connect the controller to a computer using the USB interface. It will be automatically detected by the MAV Manager.

The controller properties are available by pressing the "Configure" button.

Real-time telemetry with min/max values. MAV Manager is also capable of creating a log file from real-time telemetry data that can be viewed, analyzed, imported and exported.

Engine settings. Whenever the configuration is changed, the new value is immediately transferred to the controller and stored in memory. No additional confirmation is required. For safety reasons, some parameters are only applied after the motor has stopped.
