At the 1st of September we release the 5.2 Firmware and PC Software to our customers. Since it is a minor enhancement, the update is free for all 5.x users.
The 5.2 will be available as online update for the express owners too, which will still have the same functionality as express before, but with the new 5.2 enhancements at the algorithms.
Whats new:
The "pro" version of the mini will now have a governor too, same as the full size one. Due to limited ports at the mini unit the governor can only be used in combination with a Spektrum, a s-Bus or M-Link or a classic single line receiver. An external receiver with governor is not possible.
The Governor has been massively reworked, mainly to better support electric governing. This gives a completely new option with most simple electric speed controllers. So even a simple controller turns into a high quality governor.
Setting up an electric governor has been greatly simplified. The default settings will match most usual installations, so there is no extensive tuning process needed.
The Integration between the governor an the rest of the algorithms has been improved, so the complete control loop works smoother and quicker.
New security functions avoid unintended hot starts of the motor, which can turn into dangerous with electrics. This adds top level protection to simple ESCĀ“s as well.
The pirouette compensation has been improved. Complex moves will be smoother and more precise now.
Both versions will be available in parallel, so you can choose between 5.1 and 5.2 at any time.
The Update process will be performed by a new pc software with the known method. The location of the software will be announced at the 1th. The settings will be taken over, so no new programming needed, just as you know from former updates.
