Congratulations on your decision to install a PowerBox PBS-TAV sensor in your model. TAV stands for True Airspeed Vario, and, as the name implies, the PBS-TAV sensor is able to measure the model’s flying speed, altitude and rate of climb. Since the speed and height information are presented with unprecedented precision, the climb rate can be calculated from the data with Total Energy Compensation.

- CORE P²BUS If you intend to use the PBS-TAV purely as a telemetry sensor, plug it directly into the recei- ver’s P²BUS input; the system is automatically detected. You may need to carry out a rescan the first time you plug it in.

The PBS-TAV detects the S.BUS2 automatically. As standard the PBS-TAV is generated as GPS-1675 on Slot 8. It is possible to change the Start slot to Slot 16 or Slot 24 with the help of Terminal and the USB Interface Adapter.

Once you have set the value by test-flying the model, you can set the factor permanently in the PBS-TAV. The set-up channel is then automatically disabled and displayed as –. PowerBox-Systems − World Leaders in RC Power Supply Systems...
