The Equinox™ LiPo Cell Balancer is a device designed to regulate the voltages of all cells in a lithium-polymer (LiPo) pack to very tight tolerances during charge and discharge functions. Balanced LiPo packs typically provide higher total voltage, which means more power to the motor system. In addition, balanced LiPo packs generally last longer as no individual cell ever becomes over-charged, which is a big reason why some LiPo’s perform inadequately. A good balancing system also provides a very safe charging and discharging platform, which is critical when handling LiPo batteries. Equinox is designed to balance LiPo packs containing anywhere from 2 to 5 cells which are assembled in series. Equinox will keep the voltages of all cells in the pack within 5mV (0.005V) to 30mV (0.030V) of each other at all times. It’s very important to understand that the LiPo battery MUST be wired for balancing in order to function with Equinox! Contact your LiPo supplier if you are unsure if your battery is configured for balancing.

This document provides assembly instructions and required tools for a C.G. machine, as well as guidance on how to test an airplane using the machine. It includes steps for trimming plastic parts and metal rods, assembling the base, connecting the steel upright rods and threaded steel pivot balls, and installing the plastic ruler set. The machine is designed for testing the center of gravity of an airplane.

The device supports 2-6 cell Lithium-Polymer and Lithium-Ion batteries, measures individual cell voltages and remaining battery power, also identifies voltage differences between cells and discharge-balances all cells, no external power source is needed, it accepts ElectriFly style connectors with 3-7 pins, and includes a 6S in-line adapter for FlightPower® and Thunder Power batteries and wrist strap

ElectriFly™ High-Power High-Frequency Electronic Speed Controls w/BEC

A workbench organizer for organizing tools on the workbench. You can choose different partition boards according to the size and type of tools, and you can also adjust the size of the partition boards according to your needs.

This document describes the components and features of the Great Planes ® AMMO 36mm POWER SYSTEM. It allows customization of the power system and provides assembly instructions for each component.

This document provides information on the purchase and assembly of the Ammo 28mm power system components. These components can be customized to fit the airplane's requirements. The document includes a list of the required components and instructions on how to assemble them.

This document describes the components and features of the Ammo 20mm power system. The power system consists of Ammo 20mm motors, a 20mm stick mount gearbox, propeller, propeller adapters, and a brushless speed control. The motors are labeled with information such as diameter, length, and rpm-per-volt. The document also explains the need for using a brushless ESC when using this power system and recommends the ElectriFly Silver Series 8 (SS-8) ESC.

This document describes the components of the Ammo 12mm power system, including motors, gearbox, propeller, propeller adapters, and brushless speed control. The Ammo motors have high kVs and are designed to be used with a gear drive to reduce the rpm and allow for a larger, more efficient propeller. The included gearbox is designed for most small planes. The document also provides specifications for the Ammo motors.

The Great Planes Adjustable Mount is designed for most 1.08-1.80 2-stroke and 1.20-1.60 4-stroke engines. It features a symmetrical bolt pattern and does not require new firewall holes. The instructions include steps such as cutting the spreader bar, trimming excess material, determining installation position, drilling holes, installing the mount, and adjusting the position.

Explains how to install the Great Planes adjustable engine mount

This document provides instructions on how to use the Great Planes adjustable engine mount. This mount is suitable for most 0.20-0.40 2-cycle engines and 0.20-0.48 4-cycle engines.

The document provides assembly and operation instructions, including installation of support wires, ruler, and foam rubber pads, as well as usage instructions.
