Manual d'usuari del calibre d'angle i CG SKYRC

Introducció

The SKYRC CG & Angle Gauge (Model SK-500039) is a wireless, Bluetooth-compatible tool designed for precise gravity and angle adjustment of RC airplanes. This device provides real-time display of center of gravity data via a mobile application, enabling modelers to achieve optimal balance for safe and stable flights. Crafted from high-hardness aluminum, the gauges are durable, dust-proof, and impact-resistant, ensuring reliable performance.

Contingut del paquet

• 3 x SKYRC CG & Angle Gauges
• 1 x cable de càrrega tipus C
• Manual d'instruccions (aquest document)

Configuració

1. Charging the Gauges

   Before initial use, ensure all three gauges are fully charged. Connect the provided Type-C charging cable to each gauge's charging port and a suitable USB power source. The charging interface is a standard Type-C port.

Instruccions de funcionament

1. Placing the Aircraft

   Carefully place your RC airplane onto the three gauges. Position one gauge under the front wheel and one under each of the two rear wheels (or equivalent points for taildragger/tricycle configurations). The weighing modules are designed with an automatic centering feature, inspired by a wine glass shape, to prevent wheel sliding and ensure precise measurements.

2. Visualització de dades en temps real

   Once the aircraft is correctly positioned and the gauges are connected via Bluetooth, the "RC Gears" app will display real-time data regarding the aircraft's center of gravity. This includes individual weight readings for the front/tail wheel, left wheel, and right wheel.

3. Adjusting Gravity and Angle

   Use the real-time data from the app to make necessary adjustments to your RC airplane's weight distribution. The app provides a visual representation of the CG and helps in understanding if the aircraft is nose-heavy, tail-heavy, or has a good center of gravity.

   CG Calculation Formulas:

   • Taildragger: CG = ((X1-X2) * M1 - X2 * M2) / (M1 + M2) + X2
   • Tricycle: CG = X2 - (X2 * M2 - (X1-X2) * M1) / (M1 + M2)

   Where X1, X2, M1, M2 represent specific measurements and weights as defined within the RC Gears application.

Manteniment

• Neteja

  The gauges are designed to be dust-proof. To clean, gently wipe the surfaces with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the aluminum finish or electronic components.

• Cura de la bateria

  The gauges are equipped with a UIPO 3.7V 10440 rechargeable battery. For optimal battery life, avoid fully discharging the battery frequently. Recharge the gauges when the battery level is low. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use for extended periods.

• Emmagatzematge

  Store the gauges in a safe place where they are protected from impacts and extreme temperatures. Their impact-resistant design provides good protection, but careful handling is always recommended.

Resolució de problemes

• Gauges not connecting to app:

  Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your mobile device. Check that the gauges are powered on and fully charged. Restart the "RC Gears" app and attempt to reconnect. If issues persist, try restarting your mobile device.

• Lectures inexactes:

  Verify that the aircraft is placed stably and correctly on all three gauges. Ensure the gauges are on a flat, level surface. The automatic centering feature helps, but manual verification of stable placement is crucial. Check for any obstructions or debris under the gauges or aircraft wheels.

• Problemes de càrrega:

  Confirm that the Type-C cable is securely connected to both the gauge and the power source. Try a different Type-C cable or USB power adapter to rule out faulty accessories. Ensure the charging port on the gauge is free of debris.

Consells per a l'usuari

• For the most accurate readings, always ensure your RC aircraft is completely level and still when taking measurements.
• Periodically check the battery level of your gauges through the "RC Gears" app to avoid interruptions during critical adjustments.
• Familiarize yourself with the CG calculation formulas provided in the app and this manual to better understand the impact of weight distribution on flight characteristics.
