Welcome To Our New Website
The biggest reason for this update is a new trading/payment system. It is improved in many ways. We hope it will be a success and you will like it. If there are any problems please do not hesitate to contact us.
First prototype of Magnetic BEC
I’m developing a Magnetic BEC. It is a combination of my Magnetic Switch and a BEC “Linear regulator”. The idea is, that it should follow the specification from my switch ie. 7A continuous and more than 20A in peak. The first prototype is complet and testing just began.
No Gyros
There has for many months been some debate about the use of gyros in F3F competitions.
I do not think the gyros should be used in our competitions. Therefore I have made this sticker. The stickers is 4cm in diameter and easy to remove.
Order 16 stickers and pay only for the shipping. Sold Out
New sticker
Now all Magnetic Switchs comes with a sticker. Put it on the fuselage just above the Switch. With this sticker it will be easy to locate the switch and turn the plane on and off. The sticker is made of a ultra thin material, to keep aerodynamic drag to a minimum. Size is 14 x 43 mm and thickness is approximately 0.05 mm
New Cables
I constantly look for better components for my switches. I want them to stay as the best and most stable on the market. I found a German quality cable from www.muldentalelektronik.de It is my opinion that they make some of the best cables in the world. All Magnetic Switchs will now be made with this cables. In the long term it may lead to a price increase, but for now the price will remain the same.
Smart Magnet Holder
Many users and potential buyers of the magnetic switch is afraid of losing the magnet.
And it is also understandable, the magnet is the key. Without it, it’s hard to switch on and off the plane.
This is why I created the Smart Magnet Holder. This solution can be clipped to your jacket or pants. The magnet is mounted on 75cm line with auto roll up.
That way you’ll always know where your magnet is.
New temperature range for the Magnetic Switch
I have been looking on the temperature specifications of the components I use in the Magnetic Switch. It turns out that I’ve been very careful when I determine the operating temperature range for the Switch (-10C to +50C). Because all the components can handle down to minus 40 degrees Celsius. The new operating temperature range is (-40C to +50C). So if there is someone who wants to go out and fly in extreme cold. They should not worry about the functionality of my magnetic switch. Remember to bring warm clothes.
Magnetic Switch Mass Production
The magnetic switch is now in mass production. The quality is top notch.
Field Test at Norway Open 2011
The Magnetic Switch that we have been working on for some time, has passed the testing phase with flying colours! We had three experienced pilots test it under various conditions and situations, and they were all thoroughly impressed.
The testing took place in the challenging terrains of Norway, from flat landscapes to steep mountains. This ensured that our product was put through its paces in real-world circumstances.
Our pilots reported exceptional performance during their test runs. They loved the design, ease-of-use, and above all, the reliability factor — everything functioned perfectly even in demanding situations.
This significant milestone marks a great success for our team and I couldn’t be more proud. It’s reassuring to know that our hard work has paid off and we’re on track to deliver an outstanding product.
Magnetic Switch Prototype Test Flight
First test flight on a lovely spring morning. The test went pretty good.
