RC Altimeter #2 BASIC was designed to provide a lightweight, compact device for measuring and recording altitude over time and to flash out maximum reached altitude and batery voltage. The concept was taken from designing and developing instruments for glider planes and it is based on an altitude sensor, used in FAI flight loggers. It was designed specifically for use in onboard radio controlled (R/C) aircrafts, however it is also very useful in many other applications. It also provides recorded altitude data to the PC, through USB interface. With RC GPS module, it will record all required GPS data (latitude, longitude, QNH and ground speed) to see your flight in 3D with Google Earth. Speed graph will be shown on PC if you have RC GPS module connected to it when flying.


Its key features are:

Lightweight at only 9 grams with JR cable

Small · 37 mm x 19 mm x 7 mm

Onboard LED to flash out maximum altitude achived in flight, and battery voltage

Records altitude data for later review

FXJ switch function integrated

64kb of memory

PC interface for configuration, firmware updates and data download / review

Export data in *.txt format or as JPG image

Accepts wide range of input power: 4 – 20 volts DC. Power it from your aircraft receiver

Every unit is tested in presure chamber up to 950m for its accuracy

Later upgrade to PRO version is possible

USB interface

With RC GPS module it will:

Record all GPS data required, soo you could later see your flight in 3D with Google Earth

Speed graph will be shown on PC software
