The next Generation: The newly developed JetCat
P180-NX, P220-RXi, features a brushless, fully enclosed,
fuel pump and a brushless starter / generator system!
The rotor of the fuel pump runs in the fuel, this can be
dispensed with the otherwise necessary shaft seals. The
starter / generator works completely non-contact to the
turbine shaft. Thus, the “clutch” of starter to turbine
shaft is resistant to all conceivable dirt (no slippage
of the starter clutch by contamination or O-ring wear
possible).
The specially developed non-contact coupling
system also ensures that the brushless generator, unlike
the turbine shaft, only runs at very low speeds (well
below 10,000 rpm). This ensures a very high reliability
as well as longevity of the entire starter / generator
system.
Furthermore, the JetCat P220-RXi has been
optimized to a minimum system weight. The laser-welded
housing is made of thin-walled stainless steel. The
entire turbine including integrated brushless pump,
valves, fuel filter and generator and charging system
weighs just 1850g. As a result, this drive is also ideal
for large models (compliance with the maximum take-off
mass). In conjunction with the JetCat BMS system also
much smaller and thus lighter receiver batteries can be
used as previously required, as well as the receiver
batteries in flight from the BMS system constantly
recharged become.
The front of the P180-NX / P220-RXi turbine also
features the integrated all-metal fuel distribution
system with fuel filter and electromagnetic shut-off
valves. This system is milled from the solid and comes
without any possibly faulty hose connections / fittings,
etc. from.
After starting the turbine, the connected turbine
battery is recharged via the generator with high power.
The integrated electronics on the turbine controls the
charging current as well as voltage fully automatically.
The turbine battery is also charged while idling the
turbine. Suitable receiver batteries can also be charged
via the optional BMS system.
