New MiniPro Motor Dyno V2

Press Release From MiniPro:

This new MINIPRO’s R/C Car Inertia Motor Dynamometer (Dyno) V2 was designed for the testing all types of R/C motors, brushed or brushless. The load on the motor is produced by the inertia flywheel unit - a high quality 6061 aluminum frame cover around the flywheel to protect from high rpm speeds; and an embedded dyno board to accurately measure the acceleration of the DUT (device under test). 

The dyno uses a pinion/gear combination to accelerate the inertial mass (flywheel). Our embedded dyno board takes the flywheel’s inertia (resistance of an object to a change in its state of motion), and measures the rate it takes to accelerate it and calculates the output power and torque of the DUT. Our dyno repeatedly measures and calculates power in small increments to produce an accurate graph on a PC of the motor’s power characteristics.

Precise, otherwise known as "Repeatability" is what you want in a dyno, that means test the same electric motor time after time and get the same results. Our dyno is capable of repeatable test results using the built-in Throttle controller sensor (license required).
