The MicroViper Marine10 is a miniature Brushed Speed Controller designed specifically for use in small scale, low power RC boats. The MicroViper Marine10 has a very small footprint measuring just under 26.0mm square, making it seem even smaller is the fact that is only an incredible 9.0mm high!! The MicroViper Marine10 is very powerful for it's small size, it has been designed to run up to a maximum of 10Amps, making it a perfect alternative or upgrade for any small, low power RC boat! With a 10Amp motor limit and it's incredibly small size, the MicroViper Marine10 is invaluable in the small scale boats where space is at a premium! But don't let it's small size fool you! Like it's bigger brothers in the Viper range, it is packed full of features, including motor short protection, motor stall protection, adjustable reverse including reverse disable, built in failsafe and is also 100% waterproof. MicroViper Marine10 specification The MicroViper Marine10 comes with standard battery and motor connections fitted so it is easy to fit straight into any RC car install. .jpg)
Set up hints and tips for the Viper marine range of controllers, FAQ
Q, When I switch on I get a solid red light?
A, Check that the speed controls receiver lead is plugged into channel 2, not the batttery slot.
Q, Motor runs at full speed reverse when pairing 2.4G transmitter and receiver?
A, On most 2.4G systems there is a built in failsafe that sets a position for the throttle during failsafe, with flight type transmitters this is generally full back stick. In a forwards and reverse application (model boat) this needs to be reset to mid stick point (Refer to transmitter manual). The speed controller will only do what it is told by the transmitter, ie, the speed controller does not know the reciever is in failsafe mode. It will recognise this signal as a valid signal and respond accordingly. The speed controllers internal failsafe operates if there is excessive noise or an invalid signal only.
Q, Throttle goes dead at the end of the stick travel after I set the controller to my transmitter?
A, This is due to the output range of the transmitter going beyond the range that the Viper will recognise. The solution is to set the E.P.A. (end point adjustment) to 70% on the throttle channel and then reset the speed controller. This situation is similar to a rudder which travels too far, you reduce the E.P.A. to 'tune' things to work over a suitable range. If your transmitter does not have adjustable E.P.A. please contact Mtroniks.
What are we doing about this? (Honest answer!) - The new 'tio' range of marine controllers adjusts this range automatically, we can't do this with the Viper controllers due to limitations in the processor memory.
