Options
Select-A-Fire TrueFire - Random flickering from 30% to 50% throttle to simulate the afterburner lighting/turning on. From 50% throttle to 100% throttle the afterburner gets brighter with full brightness at 100% throttle. Select-A-Fire adds the ability to adjust the throttle position where the main Orange LED turns on. The ability to turn on and off the flickering effect is also provided.
Select-A-Fire BlueFire - Random blue led ring flickering from 30% throttle to 50% throttle. Center afterburner led is not on during this portion. From 50% throttle to 100% throttle the center afterburner led gets brighter with full brightness at 100% throttle. The blue led ring is on at a lower intensity during this portion. Select-A-Fire adds the ability to adjust the throttle position where the Blue LED starts to flicker. The ability to turn on and off the flickering effect is also provided.
No additional radio (TX) programming is required for the realistic afterburner effect. This is a plug and play system.
Includes a 3D printed motor mount, 20" extension wiring from controller to LED, connection to a 6S battery balance port and receiver. We can offer a 4S version if desired. Just let us know.
An integrated Y cable is provided with the controller to split the throttle signal from the receiver (RX) and provide it to the afterburner controller and the ESC.
The controller itself weighs 18g.
The dimension listed is for the outside diameter of the motor. The unit can be attached to the motor using a zip tie, Gorilla tape or FoamTac glue. See photos for more information. Installation instructions:
Installation instructions:
1) Remove the motor per the manual instructions.
2) Position the afterburner mount to the EDF assembly. You will need to glue the afterburner mount to the EDF assembly. Test fit the unit and make sure that there is sufficient clearance between the motor and the afterburner mount. We have found putting medium CA glue on the afterburner mount and activator on the EDF assembly then putting the two together works best.
3) Route the LED wire to the battery compartment.
4) Connect the LED wire to the Flicker LED controller.
5) Connect the ESC lead to the Y splitter. One end goes to the receiver throttle port and one to the Flicker LED controller Throttle connection.
6) Connect the Flicker LED controller Battery connector to the balance lead of the battery.
7) Power on the plane and the transmitter. Make sure your plane is secure prior to adding throttle input. Give it throttle and enjoy the Flicker! It gets really good around 30% throttle input.
