The PowerBox Pioneer is a compact 14-channel power supply unit designed for HV servos, offering redundancy through duplicated output and switch controller circuitry. Its integrated iGyro technology transforms it into a high-performance 9-axis gyro with the optional iGyro Sat sensor, providing adjustable stick priority, lock-in feel, and gyro characteristics per axis. The unit supports control via PowerBox and Jeti transmitters, or setup using the BlueCom adapter and smartphone app or PC USB interface. With a continuous current capacity of 20A and efficient heat dissipation from its machined aluminium case, the Pioneer delivers reliable performance in a space-saving, ultra-lightweight format.
