The Falcon radio system is designed for controlling Peanut scale models: weight range 20g - 60g. It is ideal for converting freeflight models to R/C and fly in the garden or indoors. Take a look at the Flight Line PlansTM RoundOne and Twinky for examples of models designed for use with Falcon radio gear.

Falcon Breeze Block 35MHz
The Falcon Breeze Block system is designed to make installation easy for micro radio controlled models. It includes 2 Falcon servos and a 4 channel receiver all on one board.
It includes 2 Falcon servos and a 4 channel receiver all on one board. An ESC or additional servos may be connnected via the 2 on-board IDC sockets. The Falcon 1 cell and 2 cell ESC are suitable for brushed motors and a 6A brushless ESC is available with compatible IDC connector.
The unit weighs only 4.8g complete with micro crystal and is designed to operate between 3V and 5V. The range is 120m on only a 20cm (8") Rx aerial; the aerial can be extended for greater range.
Dimensions: L 36mm, W 24mm, H 10mm. Weight: 4.8g.
The receiver incorporates DSP for noise elimination and a fail-safe which remembers the TX stick positions on power-up. Suitable micro size crystals are available here .

Falcon 1.6g Servo
The Falcon 1.6g servo is one of the lightest servos available.
It is compatible with all radios including the new Spektrum 2.4GHz radio.
It has unique electronic stops and it will not arm until it receives a constant
input signal. An innovative design developed and manufactured in the UK.
The 1.6g servo uses a coreless motor and a digital Hall Effect feed back sensor making it one of the lightest, fastest and most accurate and powerful in its class. The servo has a miniature IDC connector and is supplied with a lead to connect into either of the two sockets on the Breeze Block to give a 3 or 4 servo installation. The servo is optionally available with a JST-ZH connector for use with other micro receivers (e.g. Blue Arrow R3P4 or Spektrum AR6300 DSM2 Nanolite 6 Channel Receiver ). The servo is also available with a modified lead to allow its use with the Spektrum AR6400 receiver module.
The 1.6g servo is suitable for models up to 150g. Specification:
Mass 1.6g (0.06ozs) Torque 15g/cm @ 4volts Travel 6mm total (1/4") Length 21mm Width 13mm Height 13.5mm
Select connector: IDC (for Falcon receiver) : £15.25
modified IDC lead for Spektrum AR6400 : £15.95
JST-ZH (for Spektrum AR6300, Blue Arrow R3P4) : £15.95
A replacement gearset (worm, pinion and output arm) is available: £ 6.60 .

Falcon signal leads use connectors with 1mm pin spacing and are physically compatible with the sockets on the Spektrum AR6400 DSM2 6CH Ultra Micro-Rx . However, the signal and negative leads are reversed. Please refer to the AR6400 user guide for connection information. This image shows the Falcon connections.
Additional 1mm pin spacing connectors and leads are on the JST-SH page.
