3 Cylinder Onboard Glow Plug Driver Controller
One Button Programming
Fits 2.8mm OS YS
Fully Isolated

WE HAVE NEW GLOW PLUG HEAD LOCK CHOICES
This Listing Fits 2.8mm OS YS Glow Plugs

FULLY REGULATED TO DELIVER THE SAME 1.2VDC TO THE GLOW PLUG HARNESS NO MATTER WHAT THE BATTERY VOLTAGE IS FROM 6.0V to 12.4V

STILL THE BEST ONBOARD RC GLOW PLUG DRIVER THERE IS:

  • Uses a 2 or a 3 cell LIPO, and monitors the battery voltage on each cell if you attach the balance plug

    But wait....it can also operate with any battery type that is 7.4V to 11.1V nominal that can deliver 1A to 2A (depending on battery voltage).
    XT60 battery connector.

  • One Button Programming makes changing the throttle threshold or reversing direction a snap

    Set the throttle stick on your transmitter at the point you want the glow plug to come on.
    Press and Release the button on the glow driver to set the threshold.
    The onboard LED indicator will flash to confirm programming successful.
    To reverse "direction" AND set the threshold, Press and Hold the button for approximately 2 seconds until the onboard LED indicator flashes twice.
    It couldn't be any easier.
    Controllers are shipped pre-programmed to turn on below about 50% throttle.

  • 100% opto-coupled electrical isolation between the engine and the receiver

    This design is fully opto-coupled with no physical electrical connection between the receiver and either the engine, glow plug, or glow plug battery keeping EMI out of the receiver and servos.
    Don't be fooled by cheap imitations that not only provide ZERO isolation, but even run the glow plug off of the receiver battery ???

  • Latest Texas Instruments buck regulator technology providing up to 90% efficiency

    What this means is more flights while carrying less battery weight.
    A small 950mAh LIPO can power the glow plug for 45 minutes!

  • Reverse polarity protection for battery hookup

  • More Head Lock Choices to fit more engine installations

  • High Temp Soft Silicone high strand count wire used for the glow plug pigtail

  • Plug-in replaceable glow plug and led indicator pigtails

    A replacement wiring harness set can be purchased as needed in case of accident or normal wear and tear.

  • Easy connection to receiver throttle channel with included cable

  • Header connector for throttle servo so no need for Y cable.

  • Bright visible in direct sunlight offboard LED indicator on a 30cm pigtail

    Mount this somewhere visible to you while starting the engine so you know for sure when the glow plug is powered.
    Bright enough to easily see while taxiing or flying by.

  • Onboard LED programming / power indicator

  • Microchip AVR MCU

  • Each and every unit tested before packaged and shipped....NO DUDS

Condition: Brand New Production

Instructions:


  • Connect the Ground Wire ring connector to the engine case using one of the engine case screws.

  • Plug the Glow Plug connectors onto the Glow Plugs. It can sometimes be beneficial to clean the glow plug first with alcohol and then give the connector a few twists back and forth after plugging on to ensure a good connection.

  • Plug the supplied Patch Cable into the throttle channel of your receiver. Any channel can actually be used for control, but for the sake of simplicity in this example we're using the throttle channel.
    To avoid using a “Y” cable, the Throttle Servo can be plugged into the same double 3 pin connector on the controller board that the patch cable is plugged into.

  • Plug the Battery Pack you've chosen for powering the glow plugs into the XT-60 pigtail connector. Using a 2 or 3 Cell LIPO is the recommended battery pack, but any battery pack up to 12.6V MAX can be used, as long as it can deliver 0.5 to 2A continuous (depending on voltage). Builtin Battery Protection is provided if you plug the balance plug onto the board. Low battery is indicated by flashing the offboard LED in double blinks when any battery cell voltage gets down to about 3.5V per cell. Low Battery Cutoff occurs at about 3.0V per cell and is indicated with a rapid continuous single blink of the off board LED and the glow plug shutting off to prevent damaging the battery. The glow battery must then be disconnected to reset the battery monitor system.

  • Turn your transmitter and receiver on. The programming / power LED on the controller board should light up indicating it's powered and running.

  • Controllers come programmed to turn the glow plug on when the throttle is set to less than 50%. If you need it to be some other setting or you need to reverse the direction of the controller, use the programming button on the board:
    Simply set the throttle to the setting you would like the glow plug to come on at and PRESS AND RELEASE the programming button. The onboard LED indicator will blink indicating programming was accomplished.
    If you would like to reverse the direction AND program the throttle position, set the throttle lever to where you want the glow plug to come on and then PRESS AND HOLD the button (about 2 seconds) until the onboard LED blinks and then release.

  • The offboard LED holder will mount in a 1/4" hole. I like to mount it somewhere that I can see it while flying / driving.

  • That's it. Go Fly! or Drive!
