User manual Powerbox Voltage regulator Linear 5.3V
PowerBox-Systems − World Leaders in RC Power Supply Systems
Dear customer,
the voltage regulator is designed to supply a dened, stabi-
lised voltage to your receivers and servos. lt is a compact,
lightweight device with an excellent performance, and has
been developed and manufactured in-house.
This unit enables you to use modern LiPo, LiIon, NiMh or
LiFe batteries as the power supply in your models.
The device is based on an IC which delivers a regulated li-
near voltage of 5.3 or 5.9 Volt; these values are xed, and
cannot be altered.
A constant voltage substantially increases the effective life
of all the components of your RC system, but especially of
the servos. The totally unvarying voltage provides a sub-
stantial increase in the useful life of all components, but
especially of servos. Since the regulated voltage is main-
tained at an absolutely constant level, all servos always
operate with equal power and speed - regardless of load.
Any servo feedback currents which may arise are reliably
eliminated by an electrolytic capacitor of generous capaci-
ty. Since the voltage regulator weighs just 12.5 grammes
it can be installed in any model without imposing a signi-
cant weight increase.
