The Castle Creations Phoenix ICE Lite 100 can run input voltages of up to 25
and has a BEC capable of 5 amps of current for your power hungry servos!
With detailed data logging, high voltage capacity, powerful BEC and
incredible small size and weight, its really hard to beat!
Switching BEC:
The Phoenix Ice switching BEC output is factory set to 5.0V. Users may use
Castle Link to select their desired voltage between 5.0V and 7.0V, in 0.1V
increments.
Data Logging:
Ice brings another incredibly useful feature, extensive data logging
capabilities. The controllers are able to measure and record many parameters
at sample rates that you choose between 10 samples per second and 1 sample
per second. Data points include:
- Battery Voltage
- Battery Ripple
- Battery Current
- Controller Temperature
- Controller Input Throttle
- Controller Motor Power Output
- Motor RPM
This data is stored directly in the controller and may be accessed once
the run is over using the Castle Link USB adapter (sold separately) and
Castle Link software (available free at castlecreations.com). The Max Log
Size is 21,504 bytes, everything takes one byte except for motor rpm which
takes two.
- Logging 'Battery Current' at only a 1 sample / second - 358 minutes
of logging time (almost 6 hrs)
- Logging 'Motor RPM' at only 1 sample / second - 179 minutes of
logging time
- Logging everything at only 1 sample / second - 44 minutes of logging
time
- Logging everything at 10 samples / second - 4 minutes and 28 seconds
Two versions:
Heat Sink 8S max input and Heat Shrink 6S max
input
The Ice comes in two versions, standard version which is optimized for
demanding RC heli and sport aircraft applications and a Lite version
packaged in heat shrink for users with tight fuselages.
All Phoenix Ice are ready to fly out of the bag, no programming is
necessary for most aircraft applications. The controllers are set at the
factory for Auto Lipo detect/cutoff operation and they are tuned for optimum
outrunner performance.
Advanced users will find the incredible programmability of the Phoenix
Ice allows for performance characteristics tailored exactly to their
desires.
Heli users are raving about the performance of Castle’s programmable
helicopter modes which include options to directly enter desired governed
headspeeds as numerical values! Every heli power combination requires
slightly varying governor gains, Castle makes these easy to tweak and the
net result is a rock solid tail.
We now offer the Quick
Connect for more convenient data log downloading and adjusting
controller settings. The quick connect is a special harness that allows you
to keep the speed controller plugged into the receiver when connecting to
the
Castle Link.. It has an extra 12" servo lead that can be placed wherever
it is convenient to plug in the link, while your speed controller stays
connected to the receiver. No more digging into your setup to get to the
receiver just to pull off your data or change settings!
