I offer a select group of accessories that I use in my aircraft. To outfit a giant scale plane you want to put in the best equipment possible at the lowest possible price. I have checked out lots of products and found what works best for me and offer it here. This gives you one stop shopping for items you'd normally have to order from several companies. In some cases, like wing tubes and Li Ion battery packs, we couldn't find affordable ones, so we made them ourselves!

Call me and I'd be glad to help you out with anything on your giant scale plane.

42% Products Power Plus - Voltage Regulator 6v Output

This is one of the highest rated regulators ever made for RC! It can take 40 amps continuously, and it can do so without the need for cooling fins or cooling fan. This is a hybrid regulator such that it is both a linear regulator and a switched regulator. (Note that switched does not mean an on and off switch, it is an electrical term defining how the regulation takes place). This regulator does not get hot because it is a linear type when the voltage drop is high, and switched when the voltage drop is low. Because the regulator is not converting battery power into heat, your battery will last longer. Because this is for high amp applications like on 35% planes or larger, it comes with Deans plugs in order to carry the current.

Fromeco Adjustable Sahara Reg Futaba In / JR out 4.9-6.2 V

The all new Sahara Regulator by Fromeco is one of the highest rated Linear regulators in the RC market. Specifically designed to operate at High Delta V, pass high currents, and dissipate more heat than any of our competitors. The Sahara is capable of 9amps of continuous current. The new Sahara, is as light as the old retired "the Regulator" that used to be offered by Fromeco. Weighing in at about 1.1oz with the "standard" JR in and out. The new increased current capacity that the Sahara can handle makes it an excellent choice for the new power hungry servos in todays market.

Fromeco Failsafe Heavy Duty Slider Charge Switch

One of the best switches available. It is failsafe, so a failure goes to the on position. Has 22ga wire. Slide switch to turn it on and off. Has external charge jack to charge and check batteries. Same size as JR switch. Has JR connectors. If you only use one battery pack on your receiver, then this is the best option for a switch.

Fromeco Wolverine Switch - 2 JR leads in and 2 JR leads out

This is actually two switches in one, and it will draw from each battery equally! the switches are fail safe, solid state switches. It is failsafe, so a failure goes to the on position. Has 22ga wire. Uses 2 slider switches to turn it on and off. Has 2 external charge jacks to charge and check batteries. Slightly larger than one JR switch, much smaller and lighter than 2 JR switches. This switch works with batteries up to 10v. If the two batteries connected to it are unequal in charge or unequal in size, it doesn't matter, the Wolverine will draw from the two batteries in such a way that the two batteries will quickly become equal in state of discharge. In other words, if you have a 5200 mah which is 70% charged and a 2400 mah battery 50% charged, The 5200 mah battery will be used first until it reaches a 50% charge state, and then both batteries will be used such that when they are checked they will both be 45% charged, then 40% charged and so on. Really a great device because it is seldom that two batteries, even if they are the same capacities and same charge states, are discharged equally. The thumbnail at the left gives more information.

MPI 5-6.5V Miracle Switch MKII

Recommended for Rx's, as well as DA & BME ignitions This is a new product for 2008. It is the replacement for the original MPI Miracle Switch. This offers an adjustable regulator with two power leads in and two power leads out. It also offers a miracle switch which connects to the regulator via a yellow JR type connector. If the switch or the connector to the switch fails, the switch fails in the on position to keep power flowing to the Rx. The advantages of this system over the original MPI Miracle switch is that it is not only adjustable so that you can get just the right voltage to your servos, but it costs less because you only need one, not two of them to give you the redundancy of two batteries!
