Hi,

I am bumping this thread , because I want to know more about the DPSI Twin.....

THere is little or no written review on it, no demos, no videos, nothing....

I think this is a great safety feature for a large or expensive aircraft. I want to know more about it and see some testimonials about it.

Does anyone have any first hand experience with this, and not a sales rep.

Seems to me to be a low cost insurance policy. Where is the user data?????

Bosshossv8,

I have the "DPSI Twin", but I can't tell you much about it yet. I'm going to be installing it in my Hostetler Skymaster. Right now it's on the bench in test mode (see picture in my gallery). It works as expected and I think it will be a great insurance policy for my plane.

Hi RC Man,

you get the upgrade here from an other manufacturer. This unit is real redundant and has everything doubled inside[8D]. The Emcotec is only two batteries, not two regulator circuits.

Plus a lot of features:

Don´t know were you can get it in Canada but I think a short look at the website and you will find it out...


Best regards

You can order from Desert Aircraft or straight from Emcotec. Have done both, either way is fast service.

To me antique is only offering a system with 7 channels. One of the main reasons I use Emcotec products is because of there customer service. I'm sure Powerbox makes a great product haven't heard anything bad about them.

Uh oh...

Maanex is back. He is very anti-EMCOTEC. in fact, the only time he makes a post of any kind is to slur EMCOTEC. Not sure why...

Selling products as redundant though there is no redundancy has nothing to to with the pilot or installation - Sorry!

We've been down this road before and it's the same nonsense. The DPSI Twin has redundant systems throughout and that's all there is to it. Redundancy is the whole point of the DPSI Twin.

I speek from their Power Distributions- not one of Emcotec is redundant! Whats the sense of a dual receiver systems if the power supply is a single point of failure!

I have spoken with Robert Hussmann at Emcotec about this and he says you are incorrect. There is no single point of failure. As you are in Germany, it would be easy for you to give him a call yourself and get the correct information. I'm done debating it here.
