This doesn't happen anymore with UniPower2B: with only 2 batteries it generates independent outputs for supplying all on board
devices. And, what is more, it extends the safety of 2 batteries system to all utilities on board, included engine or turbine supplying.
Thanks to 2 batteries and double electronic circuits, if one branch of power supplying doesn't work anymore, all outputs will continue to work
normally.
You can use different type of batteries (ATTENTION: always 2 identical each other):
- 2 batteries Li.Poli 7,4V 2S
- 2 batteries Li.Fe 6,6V 2S
- 2 batteries Nixx 6V 5S
You can choose among three modalities of managing batteries:
- single battery (when you want to use only one battery renouncing to redundancy)
- 2 batteries discharging at the same time
- 2 batteries, a main one and a reserve one: the second battery will be used only if main one is discharged or disconnected.
You can also choose the type of motor to be supplied: gasoline engine or turbine.
UniPower generates 3 independent outputs:
- First one for supplying receiver and servos. You can choose the output voltage from 5V to 7,4V by rotating the potentiometer on the
device with a small screwdriver.
- Second one, not stabilized, exclusively dedicated to supplying the engine/turbine.
- Third one, not stabilized, presents 3 independent lines which can supply 3 devices such as smoke pump, lights, gears, brakes; each line is
protected by a 10A fuse.
Turning on/off is by a button while two light indicators allow you to check the batteries status of charge. Button and light indicators are on the
device, but you can remote them on the outside of your model using the optional external panel (item 90010701, separately sold). UniPower
is provided with MPX connectors and all accessories for mounting included.

Dear customer,
thanks for choosing an Alewings product.
UniPower series supplying units are a total innovation developed
by Alewings and represent a new concept of on board supplying.
V1.1
Medium or big airplanes, both jet and acro, in most cases have
many batteries on board: typically 2 for receiver and servos, 1 for
engine or turbine and others smaller for smokes, landing gears and
electric brakes, lights ecc.. So you have from a minimum of 3 to a
maximum of 6 battery packs on your model and redundancy only
for receiver and servos.
