uniLIGHT 4-channel, BLACK.4

MODUL-B4

4-channel controller of the BLACK.4 series

Our Black.4 Control Unit is the slim standard controller for uniLIGHT lighting systems, delivering fast and brilliant results across all model types. Compared to its predecessor, it has been significantly improved in every aspect. With its 4 control functions, it manages strobes, beacons/ACL, navigation/position lights, and spotlights using just a single remote control channel, making it highly versatile and suitable for almost any aircraft model. Additionally, it offers 16 special features for night and show flights.

Highlights of the BLACK-Series:

Dynamics: More refined, faster, and sharper lighting effects

Variety: Triple the number of preprogrammed lighting patterns

Compact Design: Reduced thickness and weight, with reverse-polarity-protected output connectors

Safety: Built-in short-circuit protection with reactivation, reverse polarity protection

Performance: Up to 5A continuous current per channel, with a total capacity of 8A

Battery Management: Integrated deep-discharge protection for connected LiPo/LiIon batteries

Master-Slave Principle: No switch required in the load circuit

Scale Functionality: Smooth transitions programmable to simulate incandescent lighting

Sport Functionality: Navigation+Strobe mode for versatile sport applications

Designed for lengevity: New hardware platform enabling updates and expansions

Speacial Features

Smooth Transitions: Gradual on/off transitions simulate incandescent bulbs or the effect of a rotating beacon in slow blink modes.

Dual-Mode Operation: Strobe signals include a base level of around 20% brightness. This allows powerful strobes to function as both position and strobe lights simultaneously, ideal for sport models where a single light fulfills dual purposes.
