WingLabs Attitude Indicator – ATOMRC Beluga Edition

Description

A compact, full-colour artificial horizon for your RC model. The WingLabs Attitude Indicator shows bank and pitch in real time from its own 6-axis motion sensor. It needs no connection to your receiver’s signal or flight controller: plug it into any free channel for power, and it does the rest.

ATOMRC Beluga edition: the horizontal (landscape) WingLabs Attitude Indicator, WL-AI-H169, delivered in a 3D printed instrument panel designed specifically for the cockpit of the ATOMRC Beluga. It drops straight into the cockpit, with the power lead routed down into the fuselage.

Price includes shipping.

Personalized with your name

Every Beluga panel is printed to order with your name or alias in raised letters on the left side of the panel, next to the ATOMRC BELUGA lettering on the right, just like the MORAGA RCPLANES example in the photos.

• How to order: add the product to your cart and, at checkout, write the name or alias you want on the panel in the order notes.
• Short names and aliases read best; the example uses two short lines.
• If no name is provided, we will contact you before printing.
• Because each panel is made to order, please allow extra time for printing before it ships.

Features

• Real artificial horizon: moving horizon, pitch ladder (5° steps, numbered every 10°), bank scale with gold pointer and a fixed aircraft symbol, just like a full-size instrument.
• Live roll and pitch readouts with 0.1° resolution and up to 25 frames per second.
• Plug and play power: runs from any free receiver channel or a 5 V BEC through its servo lead. Nothing to set up on your transmitter.
• Automatic calibration at power-up: measures sensor bias and captures the level reference in 20 to 30 seconds, and retries on its own if it detects movement.
• Built-in Wi-Fi control panel: view live values, set the pitch offset and update the firmware from any phone, tablet or computer. No app and no internet needed.
• Adjustable pitch offset (-45.0° to +45.0°, stored permanently) so level flight reads 0.0 even on models that rest nose-up on their gear.
• Radio friendly: very low power Wi-Fi (about 7 mW) that switches off automatically after 60 seconds without a connection, after 10 minutes, or as soon as the aircraft moves.
• Clear status indications: IMU LOST if the sensor stops delivering data, and LIMIT when the attitude is beyond the display range.
• Genuine and traceable: every unit has a unique serial number and a hardware-protected credential; the control panel shows AUTHENTIC for a genuine WingLabs unit.

Specifications

Important

• Use 5 V only (5.5 V maximum). Never connect it to 6 V, 7.4 V or 8.4 V (HV) receivers or BECs: it will damage the unit and is not covered by the warranty.
• Observe polarity: black wire negative (-), red wire positive (+).
• For radio-controlled model aircraft only. This is a visual aid, not a certified instrument; always fly by direct visual contact with your model.
