AeroGraphix is a Proud Dealer for Fromeco Batteries and Accessories
Fromeco uses LG Chemical Brand
Batteries exclusively for our Relion Line of Battery Packs.
Fromeco Batteries are 7.4 VDC
Nominal and 8.4 VDC Peak. When making charging considerations, the 7.4 VDC
nominal ration is most likely how your charger will indicate a 2 Cell pack.
Fromeco offers both a 2600mah 2 cell pack and a 5200mah 4 cell pack. The 2600mah
configuration is called 2S1P or 2 series 1 parallel and the 5200mah
configuration is called 2S2P or 2 series 2 parallel. Since both packs are a 2S
or 2 series, both packs are 7.4 VDC.
Charging Considerations
Fromeco Batteries are fully charged when they reach a VDC of 8.4 VDC.
Fromeco does not CONDONE and will not warranty Relion Packs that have been
purposefully charged over 8.4 VDC to obtain a higher capacity. Some retailers do
condone this with their batteries which are made up of the same LG Chemical
cells as Fromeco. They do not fully understand the damage they are causing the
cells in doing this. When choosing a charger please ensure it is reated for
Lithium Ion or Polymer use and can charge 2 cells in series or 7.4 VDC.
Fromeco recommends against the
use of the Duralite Chargers. These chargers have repeatedly show to do harm to
batteries that are not equipped with the safety charging circuits.

"The Regulator"

At Fromeco we have designed one of the highest rated, if
not the highest rated linear Regulator in the market. Specifically designed to
operate at High Delta V, pass high currents and disapate more heat than any of
our competitors. Others say they can pass the current but we are the only ones
that really can. "The Regulator" is capable of 9 amps current at 25% duty cycle.
Whey 25% duty? This is dictated by the heat sink. If we put a larger heat sink
on it we can rate it even higher. Why don't we do this? Simple, Weight!
Fromeco Regulators are FULLY ADJUSTABLE.
Votage is adjustable from 5.5 VDC to 7.2 VDC. Adjusting the out put Voltage of
your new Regulator is easy and can be done a number of ways. First thing you
will notice is two (2) pins sticking out of the right side of your new
Regulator. These pins are used to adjust the output voltage of your unit. These
pins are nothing more than shorting pins that complete a circuit to go no
lower than 5.5 VDC and no higher than 7.2 VDC. Any Conductive metal object such
as a screwdriver can be used to adjust the Voltage up or down. Fromeco also
sells a Voltage Adjustment unit designed to make this process easier.
IMPORTANT: Regulator should never be hooked
directly to the battery pack that you are intending to regulate. A Switch should
always be installed between the battery pack (Relions) and the Regulator.

The Arizona Heli Regulator

The Arizona Heli Regulator is specifically designed
with RC helicopters in mind. It can handle very high currents, in very demanding
environments. It has two separate voltage outputs: 5V for the gyro, and an
adjustable 5 to 6.00V for the receiver…allowing better responsiveness for the
digital servos not associated with the gyro system. It also can act as a solid
state switch, eliminating a mechanical switch in the power path. The solid state
switching uses a 'pin and flag' system, so there are no moving parts in flight.
Pinflag system is pictured at the top of this page.

Add Pin Flag option to Arizona Regulator

Plugs
Arizona Regulators have five leads total, an Input
"Blue", a Charge Lead "Black", a Switch Lead* "Neon Yellow", a Gyro Lead "Green
For Gyro", a Rudder Lead "Red for Rudder". Of Course Fromeco knows there is no
"Gyro Lead" and no "Rudder Lead". Green is Gain, and Red is for the Tail Rotor
Servo. We just call them that to make things easy to remember.
*The Pin Flag switch has a matching Neon Yellow Female
jack. A normal "Off the Shelf" type switch will not work in place of our Pin
Flag switch unless certain modifications are made.


The Ion Cube 2S/3S Lithium Ion/Polymer Battery
Charger is sold as a basic unit 3 channels only. The 4th and 5th channel must be
added for additional charging capacity. All Ion Cubes can be upgraded with a
Graphic User Interface "Brain" (Programming and Display Card) can be installed

"The 8 Ball Load Checker"

The Fromeco Load Checker is a
button less 1.0 amp to 1.5 amp load checker. We have designed our new Load
Checker to be about as simple as they come. Plug in your battery and wait for
the readings. We named the 8 Ball after those little fortune telling, question
answering toys that look like 8 Balls. Unlike the toy 8 Balls, Fromeco's 8 Ball
give you the right answer every time.
* Displays the Unloaded DC Voltage of your Relion Battery Packs
* Display Voltage under a 1.0 amp Load
* Displays Voltage Under a 1.5 amp Load
* No fly warning at 7.0 Volts under a 1.0 amp Load
* Goes into a Digital Voltmeter mode after the Load Checks have Completed
allowing pilots to now adjust their Fromeco Regulators
* 3 Digit LCD, reads to .01 VDC
* Display readable in Sunlight
* Very small size, about the size of a deck of cards
