I have jets and warbirds that might benefit from a PB, but also have simple models where it would be overkill.

From the Powerbox page. But yes, I have several stand-alone installations without the actual power distribution stuff.


Five different receivers are available to match the PowerBox CORE:

PBR-9D
This is a nine-channel receiver with two redundant receiver circuits. The unit features a Pē-BUS interface for servo and telemetry data, and an auxiliary output which can be configured either as SRXL bus or as channel 10.

PBR-7S
This is a seven-channel receiver with a single receiver circuit. The unit features a Pē-BUS interface for servo and telemetry data, and an auxiliary output which can be configured either as SRXL bus or as channel 8.

PBR-5S
This is a five-channel receiver with a single receiver circuit and an integral Chip aerial. The unit features a Pē-BUS interface for servo and telemetry data, while its minuscule size makes it the natural choice for small models.

PBR-26D
This is a satellite receiver featuring two redundant receiver circuits. The unit features a Pē-BUS interface for servo and telemetry data, and an auxiliary output which can be configured either as SRXL bus or S-BUS. This unit is designed to be connected to our PowerBox power supply systems or a flybarless system.

PBR-8E
This is a eight-channel receiver with two redundant receiver circuits. The unit features 8 PWM servo outputs and telemetry data for battery voltage and RF-data.

With the exception of the PBR-5S and the PBR-8E all receivers have a FastTrack interface with which the iGyro SAT can be easily connected!
