Lost Model Alarm

The Volt Logger is a small and lightweight three in one receiving end monitor specifically designed for use in model aircraft where failure of battery packs and radio control problems can lead to model loss, destruction, or personal injury. The Volt Logger can detect emerging fault conditions, allowing the modeller to take corrective action before the problem causes loss of control.

The Volt Logger can protect a model from the following fault conditions.
Discharged receiver battery pack
Low battery pack capacity
High battery pack internal resistance
One or more faulty cells
Excessive battery pack to receiver resistance caused by:
Corroded wiring from black wire syndrome
Corroded or dirty connectors
Corroded, dirty, or worn switch contacts
Poor quality wiring
Faulty servo's
Servo's stalling under load
Loss of radio range caused by:
Crash damaged crystals or IF filters
Broken receiver antenna
Intermittent sections on transmitter antenna
Metal to metal interference

The Volt Logger is supplied with a lead to suit the radio equipment in use and full instructions.
