Spektrum AC regulator Smart Firma 160A 3-8S CP

The Spektrum Smart 160A 8S offers a perfect overview of your powertrain condition, with real-time telemetry for speed, temperature, battery voltage and capacity. And without additional sensors!

Smart technology gives you a perfect overview of your powertrain condition, providing real-time telemetry with current, temperature, total battery voltage, battery cell voltage, battery temperature, remaining capacity and engine speed . And without additional sensors! Smart technology ensures that all the electronics of your aircraft model work together seamlessly for maximum efficiency and performance. It provides status information for each component of the system, increases your confidence in its capabilities, and makes the entire drive system easy to use. The Smart system consists of a compatible Spektrum transmitter, a Smart receiver, a Smart controller, or a Smart battery.

Controller is managed by modern 32-bit microcontroller ARM Cortex M4. The type, temperature and voltage of the battery cells are read directly from the Smart battery via the data wire. So you no longer need any sensors or modules, everything simply comes together. The information will be shown on the transmitter display (it is necessary to have a 2nd generation Spectrum transmitter with the latest firmware (Spektrum DX5C, DX5R, DX5 Pro, DX6R).

One-wire data transmission

Amazing innovation is very simple wiring, which is a key issue especially in RC car models. Data transfer from Smart battery to controller is via one data wire, which is part of IC3 / IC5 connector. Data is transmitted to the receiver via SRXL2 protocol. Of course, the Spektrum Company controllers are also backward compatible with conventional PWM signals, so you can operate the controller on a conventional PWM output, but without transmitting telemetry data. < / p>

Waterproof construction *

Controller electronics Spektrum The firm for RC car models is completely embedded in a special encapsulating compound that prevents moisture or dirt from entering the electronics. The controller is switched on and set by the buttons under the rubber cover.

IC5 / EC5 connector compatibility

The controller is equipped with IC5 series battery connectors. When used with a Spektrum Smart battery equipped with an IC3 or IC5 connector, the controller can receive and transmit telemetric battery data. EC5 connectors are backward compatible with IC5 connectors, but you will lose the ability to read data from the battery.

Smart Battery Information

When using the controller with the Spektrum Smart battery, the controller automatically reads all data from the battery. The Spectrum transmitter displays useful information such as the number of cycles, remaining battery capacity, and cell voltages.

More programming options

With the Smart programming box, you can easily change the controller settings to better suit your requirements. There's also an easy-to-use Smart Link desktop application. The application allows you to update the firmware and other detailed settings. The controller is connected to the computer via a programming box.

Sophisticated design with optimized cooling

The company regulators are fitted with a large heat sink on the top to remove heat from the power components. Thanks to the compact dimensions, the controller can be easily installed in the model.
