Power
The operating power for all components of the turbine (starter / glow plug / ECU / fuel pump / valves ...) is
from a 3-cell 9.9V 2200 mah LiFePo battery. Alternatively, a 2(3) cell 25C or better LiPoly battery can be
used, refer to battery types later in the manual in the Limits Menu options. The battery plugs directly into
the ECU and the ECU powers on automatically when the receiver is switched on. If you plan to store the
model for more than a few weeks, the battery should be disconnected.
Attention!
Fire! A LiPo/LiFePo battery can explode if incorrect charge parameters are used. You
should therefore always refer to the manufacturer's charger instructions. NEVER charge
the batteries unattended. Do not exceed the batteries maximum allowed charging
current. READ AND OBEY WARNINGS ON BATTERY BEFORE CHARGING!
Always ensure the batteries are at their optimal charge state before use. The battery is
heavily loaded because of the kerosene start. Please also note that at very low ambient
temperatures, LiPo/LiFePo batteries have lower capacities.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT INSERT A SWITCH BETWEEN THE BATTERY AND ECU.
