Robbe F-Series Radios

Robbe Make some of the best radios for the model boat world
.With the likes of the F14 / F16 Series Radios been some of the best model boat radios on the market in terms of ease of use and there customisation from the beginner to the expert modeller alike .
There radios are very Scalable tend to come in a 4 channel set up but can be expanded up to 109 channels.

Robbe F & Fx Series Radios

FC-16 Boat + Truck
8-channel Computer-radio system for working - Marine and Truck models. Expandable to 76 functions.

New edition of the proven FC-16 radio, however with new software. The features have been optimised to suit working surface models, the heli and acro programs ahve been deleted, and for that reason, we have extended the internal model memory to 10 models.

the ergonomic Tx case can be used with thumbs on sticks, or as a tray transmitter. Aside from the unlimited memeory storage possibilities, via the one-off CAMPac-Module system, the FC-16 Boat ´n Truck is the ideale radio foe all Modellers with a high demand for a variety of functions.

Multi-Switch - or Multiprop - channel expansion modules can be fitted to the two Tx option wells.
The maximum expansion makes available 6 Proportional channels and up to 32 switched channels = 76 functions.

All Model programming and data entry will be made via the 6 key keypad, modified directly in LCD screen and stored.
The presicion stick units are fitted with mechanical trima with an electronic trim-memory.
Internal connection for DSC- and Trainer operation by using Trainer Module 4, which is installed in one the top option wells.

The normal stick unit may be replaced by the Navy Twin-Stick unit, designed for controlling twin-engined model boats, but can also be used to provide separate control of jib and mainsail on a model sailing boat.
The transmitter can be operated in either FM-Modulation or interference resistant PCM 1024 Modulation.
Optional flexi aerial
large battery compartment for packs up to 3500 mAh = ca. 12-14 hours operation on one charge.

Robbe F14 Radio

The expandable RC-System

The F-14 is a universal radio system in tray-type design of the successful and proven F-series and
features 5 option wells for expansion to suit individual needs. The transmitter can be expanded to 16 functions (8 channels) by adding optional switched and proportional channels, and a range of
optional modules can be fitted such as Multi-Switch, Multi-Prop, Dual-Rates and Mini Options to meet
the requirements of the more demanding user.

The new features of the F-14

* Basic transmitter can be expanded to 16 functions with 2 proportional sliders and 2 switched channels.
* Multi-Switch, Multi-Prop or Multi-Switch-Prop channel expansion to 5 prop + 48 multi-channels = 106 Functions
* No Multi-Adapter necessary
* Prepared for front installation of the Trainer Module 4 for teacher-pupil operation with almost all robbe-Futaba transmitters
* 5 option well now also suitable for Multi- Module with 8 control elements.
* Optional helical aerial

Please not that the Radio Comes as a 4 channel set and not with all the switches shown in the picture

F14 - Modules accessories

Navy Sound Module 8270
A sound module for model boats, containing six digitally stored original sounds. At any time a signal can be
superimposed on the engine noise simultaneously, such as the Martins horn, foghorn, ship's bell,
typhoon or destroyer siren, without interrupting the sound of the diesel engine.
The diesel engine sound varies according to the speed of the drive motor, and features start-up and run-
down sound phases. The sound module features an integral 8-channel multi-switch decoder which is used to switch the individual sounds on and off.
A further two multi-switch switched channels are available for any purposes you wish, and can be used for
direct control of auxiliary functions drawing up to 1 A (lights, anchor winch etc.). All inputs and outputs are protected against short-circuit and reverse polarity.
The sound module can be used with the earlier 6-channel and the current 8-channel robbe Multi-Switch
modules, and also with other makes of similar unit. A powerful, high-volume amplifier stage provides distortion-free reproduction, and the volume is infinitely variable.
A Multi-Switch module must be installed in any robbe Futaba system transmitter to control the sound effects.

Specification::
Weight: 65 g Voltage: 6 - 12 Volts
current: 20 - 30 mA Dimensions: 77 x 48 x 24 mm
Motor connection: -14 ... +14 Volts
Switched power: 1 Amp
Power output: approx. 6 W into 8 Ohms at 12 V
Loudspeaker: 4 - 8 Ohm

Multi Switch Prob Module 12+2 Decoder 8370
For each Multi-Switch module in the transmitter you need one decoder at the receiver end. This takes up
only one servo channel, and can switch 12 channels directly as well as providing 2 servo channels. Operating voltage 4.8 - 24 Volts, up to 2.7 A per output.
Now with Memory Function: both channels assigned to a single switch can be turned on simultaneously.
The memory function can be switched off at any time.
The Multi-Switch-Prop decoder can also process the switched functions of the 8-channel and 16-channel modules.
The output stage of this decoder features protection against short-circuit, reverse polarity and overheating,
making it virtually indestructible. Set supplied without connecting leads.

£107.28

Duo Switch (Memo) 1-8445
Two-channel switch module for operating two separate switched functions On and Off, or - with special wiring - for reversing electric motors. Designed for switching auxiliary working systems in model aircraft, boats and cars. All switches are controlled directly from the receiver, and are fitted with an adjustor for setting the switching point. The output of the electronic switches is galvanically separated from the relay input. The maximum switching capacity of the relay is 24 V / 5 A.

The switch modules features two alternative types of switching process:
1. Normal version, the operated function remains switched on as long as the associated transmitter control is held in the ´ON´ position.
2. Memory version, when the transmitter control is operated, the function is switched on, and the ON state is stored. The function is only switched off again when you operate the same transmitter control a second time. The relay outputs take the form of screw-terminals, so no soldering is required.

Specification:: Weight: 24 g Voltage: 24 Volts current: 5 mA Dimensions: 51x42.5x14 mm

F series Flexi Aerial 8072
Ultra-short, flexible helical aerials for all F-series transmitters (F-14, FC-16, FC-18 and FC-28). Unobstructed vision and much improved freedom of movement are the practical advantages of this type of aerial. They also eliminate the danger of gradual range loss, as can occur with dirty, corroded or bent telescopic aerials. With a helical aerial the radiated power of the transmitter is unavoidably reduced by about 30% compared with a new telescopic aerial, and for this reason they should only be used for close-range work and under normal reception conditions. Specification: Frequency band:´40 MHz Length:´40/41 MHz: 27 cm All F-series transmitters have been tested and granted CE approval for use with these helical aerials.

Batteries And Chargers For F Series Radios

Robbe Lader6 Mains Charger

A very useful charger for TX and RX along with many other different types of cells..
Capable all-purpose 230 V battery charger exploiting the latest generation of technology, designed for recharging transmitter,
receiver and starter batteries.
The charge monitor LEDs are fitted behind a clear front panel, and a special light pipe concentrates the light
to produce a very bright indicator which is easy to see in daylight and even in bright sunlight.
The unit features an integral battery test function which checks the state of the charged pack by giving a
brief charge current at 2 A when you press the button.
A 3-LED test monitor indicates the pack’s state of charge. This is a very useful tool in terms of safety,
especially with receiver batteries.
