The models PYRO 800-40 and PYRO 800-48 as well as PYRO 850-50 have each been supplemented by two versions with a 6mm shaft. The telemetry cable JST (Mikado) and the programming cable KOLIBRI-X are also new in the programme.

Other items are no longer in the range, here are the most important products that have been dropped:

• PYRO 850-40 XL and PYRO 850-50 XL.
• The speed controller series KOBY and JIVE Pro.
• PROGCARD and PROGCARD II.

You have always known KONTRONIK as your reliable partner who develops and produces top-class speed controllers and BLDC motors in Germany.

For many years, we have managed to keep our sales prices stable and to compensate for rising costs through internal improvements. Unfortunately, the cost situation in the semiconductor market as well as increased energy and personnel costs are now forcing us to adjust our prices.

What we have been experiencing in recent months in the procurement of electronic components and metal parts reflects a situation we have never experienced before. Price increases of up to several times the previously usual prices are currently the order of the day, and even the willingness to pay the inflated prices does not mean that we will actually be supplied on time or at all.

The current KONTRONIK price list 2021 will expire on 28 February 2022. Please refer to the KONTRONIK price list 2022 in the section "Downloads - Support" for the new prices.

We look forward with you to the coming modelling season and wish you many great experiences with KONTRONIK products!

The product highlights at KOLIBRI 140 HV-I & 90 HV-I:

integrated telemetry function telemetry protocols for Futaba, Jeti, Multiplex, Mikado and Graupner reliable high and stable performance reliable protection functions. As always at KONTRONIK ideal control behaviour – the software is based on that of the premium controller KOSMIK  established soft start up diverse mode programming  high-performance BEC up to 10A Continuous current and  30A Peak current Bluetooth-capable and online updateable

The techincal data of the KOLIBRI HV-I series at a glance:

Superheroes are the KONTRONIK controllers, which are even more powerful with the integrated telemetry function! From now on you can recognize our controllers with telemetry by the abbreviation „HV-I“. So our new KOSMIK 210 HV-I and KOSMIK 170 HV-I.

These will complement the KOSMIK product range from May 2020. Our new additions in detail:

210A, 170A respectively continuous current Powerful BEC with 10A continuous current and 30A peak current Telemetry protocols for Futaba, Jeti, Multiplex, Mikado und Graupner Lightweight: superstrong, even without heat sink

The already existing PYRO 850-24 P BM is now also available in the Competition version. A hand-wound winding with an even thicker copper cross section offers even more power and efficiency at high currents. All other technical data can be found in the table below or on our homepage. Of course, an individual engraving is also possible with this Competition version.

From now on the cooling fan, which is already delivered pre-assembled on the KOLIBRI 140 LV, is also available as a spare part separately.

	Name	Cooling fan KOLIBRI 140 LV
	Product number	09479
	Price (incl. VAT)	15,90€ / $19,90

Based on the COOL KOSMIK 250 HV, we have developed two variants with special cooling concepts. Thanks to these cooling concepts, these regulators crack the 300 A limit with ease.

The DuoCOOL KOSMIK 300 HV has a larger heat sink on which two fans can be mounted. Thus, this controller is best suited for e.g. Scale applications or bigger planes.

The improved heat dissipation enables our ECUs to reach the 300 A level. Both controllers are supplied in the power class with 10 mm² cables. Of course, these regulators also show the familiar characteristics of the COOL KOSMIK 250 HV:

• Powerful BEC with BEC 10 A continuous current and 30 A peak current
• Voltage 5-14 S / 20-59 V
• Integrated telemetry for Futaba, Jeti, Multiplex, Mikado and Graupner
• Perfect speed control
• Dimensions and weight

We are expanding our controller portfolio for UAV applications. The KOLIBRI-X 60 LV and the KOLIBRI-X 90 LV complement the KONTROL-X series, which covers the power range from 30 A to 55 A.

The KOLIBRI-X ECUs are based, as the name says, on the new KOLIBRI LV. The software is specially designed to meet the needs of UAV applications and allows the programming of 4 modes: DJI-GPS, other GPS systems, forward / reverse and reverse rotation.

The KOLIBRI-X controllers allow the delivery of the most important telemetry data to receivers of Futaba, Jeti, Multiplex, Mikado and Graupner.

The KOLIBRI-X 60 LV and the KOLIBRI-X 90 LV will be available from the end of February. Pre-orders can  already be placed.

With the same seize and weight as the COOL KOSMIK 200 HV, our new COOL KOSMIK 250 HV provides even more power

- 250 A continuous current and up to 640 A peak current!

Of course, there is a strong BEC on board with 10 A continuous current and up to 30 A peak current as well.

With improvements in hardware and software, we further optimized the well-established governor characteristics of the KOSMIK-series.Telemetry integrated: As a further highlight, we integrated the telemetry functions. So the COOL KOSMIK 250 HV provides telemetric data for Futaba, Multiplex, Graupner, Mikado and Jeti without an additional TelMe module.

Of course, it is also prepared for Bluetooth communication and online updates.

The KONDOR motors are powerful outrunner motors. They perfectly fit for airplanes, but can also be used with helicopters, cars and boats. Some of the most important features are:

• Very good power-to-weight ratio
• special neodym magnets, heat resistent up to 150 °C
• single strand wiring ensuring optimal cooling and performance
• solid and long lasting ball bearings
• special hardened shaft
• corrosion resistant coating of the rotor

A high quality set of motor flange and propeller fixture is already included in the package and the price. So you can easily change the motor to a backmount version.

The KONDOR motors and KOLIBRI LV ESC build a perfect team:

KONDOR 15 / 25 KOLIBRI 60 LV	KONDOR-XL 20 KOLIBRI 90 LV	KONDOR XL 30 KOLIBRI 140

At the same time we hereby officially terminate the Tango engines.

Version 1.13 / 4.13 fixes a bug:

Graupner HoTT Telemetry - Capacity limit warning with Bluetooth module plugged in.

These updates are now available under "Download" on our homepage.

From now on the software release 4.12 for the KOSMIK and 1.12 for the JIVE Pro is ready for download.

With this release, the KONTRONIK protocol for telemetry is now available. It can be used in combination with the telemetry cable JR. The specification of the protocol can be found under “Downloads” as well.

The two software versions add two additional parameters to the TelMe module JETI: timing and throttle. In addition, bugs of the previous version are eliminated. At the TelMe-module for Graupner, the capacity alarm is from now on only active as long as the motor is rotating. In addition, instead of the set maximum values, the actually reached maximum values for current and ESC-temperature are now displayed.

These updates are now available under “Download” on our homepage.

Our new KOLIBRI series is available from April 2018 on!

We offer three versions: KOLIBRI 60 LV, KOLIBRI 90 LV and KOLIBRI 140 LV.

All versions have a high and stable performance. The KOLIBRI also provides the well-known safety functions of KONTRONIK products. As the software is based on our premium ESC KOSMIK, the KOLIBRI provides an optimal governor for your flight. It also features the well-known soft start-up and the flexible modus programming of the premium segment.

In addition, all versions have a very strong BEC with up to 9 V and 10 A continuous current.

As a further highlight, we integrated the telemetry functions. So the KOLIBRI provides telemetric data for Futaba, 
 Multiplex, Graupner, Mikado and Jeti without an additional TelMe module.

Of course, all versions are prepared for Bluetooth communication and online updates.

With several new motors we enlarge our PYRO-series:

The PYRO 650-53 and 650-53 L: 530 kv for the 650 class. With two different shaft lengths (23.5 mm and 40 mm free shaft length). Order no. 27317 (650-53) and 27318 (650-53 L).

The PYRO 750-45 S and 750-45 S Competition: with very short shaft (20 mm free shaft length), e.g. for the Henseleit TDF. Order no. 277086 (750-45 S) and 277086C (750-45 S Competition).

The PYRO 850-24 L Competition: 240 kv for the 850 class in a competition version with handwinding and outstandingly low inner resistance. Order no. 276161C.

All motors are available from now on.

We proudly introduce our new team manager for Europe: Heiko Fischer. Heiko is deeply rooted in the RC scene for many years and well known from various events as a pilot or exhibitor.

Since 2017 he is also responsible for technical support at KONTRONIK. As our team manager, he is the contact person for our pilots and those, who want to become our pilots.

DryFluid Extreme Gear Lube has been specifically designed for heavy-duty model-building gearboxes. It is not a fat, not oiling and free of silicones and therefore it is more a lubricant.

Through the use of dry particles, sliding polymers and extremely adherent high-end lubricants it has extraordinary lubricating properties. Further characteristics are its extreme pressure resistance, excellent adhesion and its low tendency to dust and dirt binding.

The long-term effect will inspire every model maker.

We have optimized our sales concept for the USA. Most important pillar is Tim DiPeri. He is our team manager in the USA already and now our Business Development Manager North America as well. This means he is the contact person for our retailer, end customer and pilots. Furthermore, he is in charge of acquiring new retailers and extend our sales network.

As a second pillar we launched a consignation stock in the USA. So many orders can be shipped directly from the USA which leads to a much faster reaction time. Finally, we decrease our dollar prices by 9% in average. This is possible due to an optimized logistic and cost structure as well as to the development of the dollar-euro-relation. The change will be effective from February 2018. From February onwards you can find the new price list here.

In 2017 we announced the KOLIBRI series for summer / autumn 2017. But during our tests and validations we found some details, that we wanted to optimize before going to market. Despite the announcement, it is most important for us to provide a carefully tested product that meets our own expectations – even if it takes longer than planned. We are now again testing and validating the ESCs and therefore we do not yet want to make any new announcement. But please be sure, that we are working on it with high pressure!

In addition, in December 2017 there was shown a COOL KOSMIK 220 UHV for a short time on our homepage. It is true that we are working on a 16S controller. At the moment we are still in the development and testing phase. Our marketing has inadvertently put a prepared "dummy page" online. It's too early to name details about final performance, features, launch and price. Please be patient and stay curious.

The last week a "COOL KOSMIK 220 UHV" was shown on our website. It is true that we are working on a 16S controller. At the moment we are still in the development and testing phase. Our marketing has inadvertently put a prepared "dummy page" online. It's too early to name details about final performance, features, launch and price. Please be patient and stay curious.

The launch of the new Henseleit TDFun is coming closer. Especially for this helicopter we provide the perfect motor: as from end of September the following versions with special shaft, perfectly fitting size and power are available:

Of course, every version will also be available as a Competition motor – with well-known extra power, lower inner resistance and individual engraving.

Henseleit recommends to run the TDF with these motors in combination with the KONTRONIK JIVE Pro 120+ HV or the KOSMIK 160 HV.

We enlarge our motor portfolio. As from September 2017 the PYRO 1000-34L with 340 kv is available.

As from October 2017 the MINIPYRO motor series will be enlarged by a version with 4,2:1 gear. As known from the existing versions, the shaft and the pinion are produced as one piece, and not glued together. So that loosing pinions are a thing of the past.

As from September 2017 the KONTROL-X series is available with improved hardware and software. The most important change is that the ESCs now come along with internal 5V power supply. The price remains the same as before.

As an addition to our product range of connectors, we now offer also 8 mm gold connectors. We recommend them for applications with high current, e.g. in combination with the PYRO 900 or 1000. These connectors reduce losses of electric power due to contact resistance and improve the efficiency of the drive.

The 8 mm gold connectors are available in two package sizes: with 5 pairs (incl. shrinking hoses, order no. 9052) for 14,90 € (incl. VAT) resp. 18,90 $ or with 10 pairs (incl. shrinking hoses, order no 9053) for 28,90 € (incl. VAT) or 36,90 $.

We are proud to introduce our new team manager USA: Tim Diperi. Tim has over 40 years of RC experience, took part in countless competitions and is related to KONTRONIK for years now. As team manager, he is our contact person for all kinds of questions and for all our pilots.

We sincerely thank Richard Zappe who can no longer act as our team manager due to lack of time. Thank you, Richard, for all your support!

In autumn 2017 KONTRONIK we are planning to launch our new LV-ESC: the KOLIBRI.

The KOLIBRI will be available in 3 versions (first drafts):

All versions are designed for 2-6S and have a powerful BEC with 5-9V and up to 10A continuous
current.

Further features are:

·         Software is based on the premium-ESC KOSMIK

·         soft startup and perfect control like in the premium segment

·         variable application with easy modus programming

·         available TelME’s are already integrated – no further hardware is necessary

·         1 resp. 2 (version 120LV) telemetry interfaces

·         bluetooth-capable

·         update-capable

·         …

Last tests and preparations are still in progress so that we plan to launch the KOLIBRI in autumn 2017. Prices and final technical details will be announced then. Stay curious!

At the beginning of this year we had a relaunch of the KONTRONIK brand. Now our new merchandising products like Shirts, Jackets etc. are available:

KONTRONIK now has an official Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/KontronikOfficial/).

We are looking forward to your stories and experiences with our products, your feedback, comments, critics and ideas.

Join us on Facebook!

Many of you may already know that KONTRONIK + SOBEK Drives GmbH is not only active in the RC model sector, but also for a lot of industrial companies. To clarify our structure and position we are going to realise two changes as from 2017-01-01:

1. As from 2017-01-01 we are going to change our company’s name. KONTRONIK + SOBEK Drives GmbH will turn into SOBEK Drives GmbH. Please consider this in our written conversation from then on SOBEK Drives GmbH,Etzwiesenstraße 35/1, 72108 Rottenburg.

2. Although there are still some tough rumors: Despite our activity in industrial sectors, we will not only be loyal towards the RC hobby sector, but even strengthen the brand KONTRONIK. In addition to new products (which you can find below), there will be a relaunch of the brand KONTRONIK:

The design of the brand is modernized by clearer colors and shapes. Merchandising items, packages, our homepage, booth etc. will be “refreshed” stepwise as from 2017-01-01.

Perfectly adapted to run sailplanes with 6S: the new MINIPYRO with KPG27 gear with a 5,27:1 ratio. The motor is available in two versions (MINIPYRO 400-13 and MINIPYRO 400-15). Some technical details:

PYRO 750-50L2 with 55 mm shaft

Especially for the new LOGO 700 and similar helicopters, we launch the PYRO 750-50 with a special shaft. The diameter of the shaft is 6 mm and the length is 55 mm. All other technical details and the price is similar to the other versions of the PYRO 750-50. The order no. is 0277093. The PYRO 750-50L2 is available from now on.

The shaft is also available as a spare part with order no 03833 from now on.

The PYRO 850-24P Backmount

In addition we now launch the PYRO 850-24P as a backmount version. All other technical details and the price are similar to the PYRO 850-24P. The order no. is 0277093. Please find here the drawing:

We proudly present the new PYRO 1000-48L. A 10kW motor, that can be made to sweat by hardly any existing ESC. With his incredible power to weight ratio of 11.5 watts per gram, the PYRO 1000-48L is not only extremely strong, but also very compact and light (870 grams, 63 mm diameter, 80mm length).

So the PYRO 1000 is tailor made for Speed-Helis. But also in large Helis and planes, it is a guarantor for endless power.

Technical data of the PYRO 1000-48L:

• 10 kW permanent power
• 480 kV
• weight 870 g
• diameter 63 mm
• length 80mm

Of course the PYRO 1000-48L will also be available in combination with our KSG. The extra power of the PYRO 1000-48L further increases the well known advantages of the KSG. This combination is able to airborne towplanes and 100 / 120 scale models without any problems: cleaner, more silent and with less smell than a gas-driven engine.

The KSG is available from September 2016 on in combination with the PYRO 1000-48L and also with the COOL KOSMIK 200 HV in both mounting versions (frontside or backside).

The price will be 1.299 € with the PYRO 1000-48L and 1.999 € with the PYRO 1000-48L and the COOL KOSMIK 200 HV.

The new prices of the KSG in combination with the PYRO 850-50L will be 1.199 € and in addition with the COOL KOSMIK 200 HV 1.899 € (incl. VAT).

From August 2016 two new TelMe modules will be available as well: the TelMe MIKADO and the TelMe JETI.

Both modules can be run with telemetry-ready ESCs from KONTRONIK (KOSMIK and JIVE Pro) and appropriate radio controls from MIKADO (V-Bar) and Ex-Bus-prepared radio controls from JETI (DS-14 / -16, DC-14 / -16).

The TelMe modules show various parameters, like

• BEC voltage, current and temperature
• …

The following alarms are shown:

• amplifier temperature
• motor current
• BEC temperature
• …

Furthermore the TelMe Mikado shows the following limits:

• min voltage
• max current (mean and peak)
• BEC min voltage
• BEC max temperature
• amplifier max temperature

The price of the TelMe modules is 89,90 € (incl. VAT) each.

Please make sure to have installed the latest software version on your radio control and ESC. KONTRONIK provides a particular software update on the homepage.

The new software versions enable to run the TelMe modules Mikado and Jeti and are available from August 2016 on our homepage.

We are happy to introduce our new team manager USA: Richard Zappe. Richard is a good friend of KONTRONIK for many years and a very skilled and experienced pilot. As our new team manager, he is from now on our contact person for all kinds of questions. He is responsible for our team pilots in the USA and organization of events and competitions.

We are happy to inform you, that from now on it is possible to buy KONTRONIK products via Amazon USA.

Especially end customers will benefit from the established and proven Amazon service and very short delivery times. Payment, shipment and returns will be quick and easy via Amazon.

Although Amazon is the logistical partner, customer service and support is still provided by
KONTRONIK. By that, we stay in close contact to our customers.

Please visit www.amazon.com and look for KONTRONIK products.

In addition, we improved our service concept for technical support and repairs in the USA. Our Trusted Service Partner Greg Alderman in the USA is providing local service. In case a repair is possible, it is provided directly from our Service Partner. In case of exchange of a product, it is directly done by him.That provides very short processing, shipment and waiting times for all customers.

The contact information is:

KONTRONIK USA Service

PO Box 5

Oakville, IN 47367

Very complex repairs are still processed in Germany, assuming the customer agrees.

Furthermore, we also increase the service level for all our dealers by the beginning of June. Contactfor orders still is KONTRONIK Germany. But we now keep our most important products on stock in the USA and orders can be shipped from there directly to the dealer (depending on ordered products and quantities). Very large orders or products that are ordered very seldom, will still be sent from Germany and the orderer will get an information before. So we are able to provide much faster reaction and shipment times and therefore better customer service.

From now on the software release 4.9 for the KOSMIK and 1.9 for the JIVE Pro is ready for download.

With this software version you can run the KOSMIK and JIVE Pro with the Futaba FX 22, T18MZ, T18MZ-WC and T14SG. Please also update your Futaba software.

In addition, the software version 4.9 enables the KOSMIK to run with HV-Lipos with an end-of-charge voltage of 4.35 V.

The new software can be found at our download section.

Our business segment, SOBEK Drives, develops and manufactures cutting edge high-performance electric drive solutions and ECUs for industrial applications. We deliver our products, completely “made in Germany “, in a pragmatic , flexible and efficient manner. For further details please visit our new website www.sobek-drives.de.

You can now download our new iOs-versions of the K-VIEW app and K-PROG app for the Bluetooth Module in the App Store. Of course, the apps are for free.

The Bluetooth Module is the interface between the KONTRONIK ESCs KOSMIK and JIVE Pro and a smartphone. The ESC detects the module automatically. When the Apps K-VIEW and K-PROG are installed on the smartphone, it is possible to configure and communicate with the ESC via
smartphone.

Futaba integrated the TelMe Futaba now also in their T14 SG. Please be attend, that your transmitter and your ESC have to be updated to the latest software version.

Together with a PYRO 850-50 the KONTRONIK Spur Gear (KSG) is a real innovation especially for airplanes. It fits perfectly for towplanes and 100 / 120 scale models.

The KSG can be used, where gas engines are forbidden: silent, clean, odorless.

And its performance? Outstanding:

·         static thrust up to 32 kg

·         10 kW peak power

·         5 kW continuous power

The KSG offers multiple possibilities of mounting. Depending on the version, it can be mounted on the front, on the back or the sides. Despite its power, it has a very compact construction (BHT 132 x 108,3 x 135,5 mm when mounted on the back) and light weight (ca. 1.300 resp. 1.500 g motor included).

Further features are a combination of gear wheels materials that are more resistant to wear and special ball bearings. The gear ratio is 4:1.

The KSG is constructed to run in combination with the PYRO 850-50. The sales price for the set of KSG and PYRO 850-50 is 1,299 €; in addition with a COOL KOSMIK 200 HV 1,999 €. The price for the KSG itself is 899 € (all prices incl. V.A.T.). Customers, who already have a PYRO 850-50, can send it to KONTRONIK so that we mount it to the KSG without any further costs. The KSG is not sold without a motor, as mounting is difficult and the KSG is only approved for the PYRO 850-50 so far.

The KSG is available as from December 2015, preorders are possible from now on.

New look for our well known COOL KOSMIK 200 HV:

• refined with 18-karat gold
• strictly limited to 100 pieces – serial number is engraved on the back side

The COOL KOSMIK 200 HV Limited Gold Edition is available from December 2015. Pre-orders will be  taken from now on. The edition is limited, so it pays to be quick. Thus the race for the ECUs is fair, we have set up an e-mail address:

                             golden-kosmik@remove-this.kontronik.com

The decisive factor is the sequence of orders to this address. The selling price for the COOL KOSMIK 200 HV Limited Gold Edition is 1,000 EUR (incl. VAT.).

Requirements to ESCs are constantly increasing – by more powerful servos and motors, harder flying styles etc. For this reason, we gave a live-cell therapy to our ESCs.

Our KOBY is now equipped with more powerful MOSFETs, ELKOs, capacitors and gate resistors.

By optimizing our hardware in our JIVE Pro- and KOMSIK-ESCs we fixed problems of BEC initialization that could have occurred in newer configurations.

TelMe Futaba is ready! We say too - at last!. Development time and effort has been much more than expected.. 

The TelMe module is the interface between a KOTRONIK ESC with module port and a Futaba receiver prepared for telemetry. TelMe is recognized automatically by the ESC and the correct data stream is started.

The retail price will be 89,90€ / 109,90$ - but starting 01.01.2016. For all which have already ordered and for all who decide without hesitation the special price of 69,90€ / 86,60$ is available. So be quick.

Generally it's necessary that the transmitter uses FASSTest communication. Futaba has included this already in T18MZ. T14SG and FX-22 will follow in October (announced by Futaba). T18SZ, FX-32 and others are not communicated yet.

Be sure that you update your Futaba  transmitter, ProgUNIT / ProgDISC and ESC to the newest software.
