The SkyRC Program Box is a very sophisticated and high quality electronic device which has a high-performance microprocessor. It has a very compact design and still offers numerous functions such as these six to program, connect or check devices.
- 1. Speed controller settings
- 2. PC interface – speed controller to PC
- 3. Input PPM signal display
- 4. Servo Tester
- 5. Motor KV / Umin Tester
- 6. LiPo battery meter
The device has a two-line LCD display with 16 characters each which is easy to understand and read. It has 4 buttons on the front with which all functions can be operated and set. All connections such as USB, motor sensor, servo and battery balancer connector are located on the side of the program box.
Speed controller programming
In order to program the speed controller precisely and extensively, we recommend a connection to the PC, but this is not always possible and for this reason there is the program box. With the box, all parameters can be set easily, quickly and clearly; the box simply has to be connected to the controller.
PC interface – speed controller to PC
The Program Box can also be used as a SkyLINK, i.e. a USB adapter to connect the speed controller and the PC. The firmware can then be updated via the PC or the controller can be programmed with the SkyLINK software.
PPM signal display
With this menu item the output voltage of the receiver and the PPM signal width as well as the frequency of the remote control can be checked.
Servo Tester
Thanks to this function, the remote control no longer needs to be switched on to test the servos. Simply connect the servo to the program box and receive information on input voltage, servo travel and voltage peaks. There are two modes, a so-called “swing mode” and a manual mode, both of which are very easy to use.
Motor KV / Umin Tester Are
you wondering about the performance of your motor? Then check the values of your motor with this function. Connect the motor to the program box, accelerate with the remote control and check the values such as KV, rpm or the input voltage on the display.
LiPo battery measuring device
The Program Box is also ideal for checking LiPo batteries quickly and easily, no matter where. The number of cells, the total voltage, the voltage of the individual cells and the highest and lowest voltage can be read out.
