The SKYRC POWER SWITCH electronic switch is a modern and reliable solution designed to easily power on and off the power to your RC car.

Its main technical features allow straightforward installation in common configurations of LiPo or NiMH receiver batteries used in the RC field. The switch supports a voltage range suitable for the majority of onboard systems, and delivers high DC current while protecting sensitive circuits. It is equipped with protections against polarity reversals, overcurrents and short circuits, which prevents damage in case of wiring errors or peak loads. The device also integrates a LED status indicator, clearly showing the ON, OFF state or any possible alert.

Usage can be simple and manual or programmable according to the driver's preferences. The switch is operated via the built-in button.

Designed to integrate harmoniously into the Sky RC ecosystem, this switch provides connectors compatible with the main wiring used in RC models. Its design and housing are intended to withstand vibrations and typical operating conditions, while remaining compact enough to fit in fuselage compartments or the transponder mount of a buggy, for example. Installation requires no special tools and the provided instructions guide step by step in connecting the power and signal wires.

It replaces traditional mechanical switches and eliminates contact issues thanks to a simple and reliable push-button.

The sealed plastic housing can be easily fixed to a transponder mount or any surface of your model using double-sided tape. Two types of lower covers are provided, allowing the user to choose the most suitable configuration.

The POWER SWITCH also features a intelligent LiPo mode: when activated, it automatically detects a low battery voltage and cuts power to protect the battery from excessive discharge. This function can be disabled if you are using NiMH/NiCd batteries or if another protection is already in place.

In addition, the switch indicates the remaining charge state and the conditions of your battery via the integrated LEDs.
