FuselageFlasher DUO

FuselageFlasher DUO

Fusion – power box – the heart of the FuselageFlasher

Nexus’ little brother, Fusion, is the heart for the control of the FuselageFlasher.

A compact, sturdy aluminium enclosure fits everything FuselageFlasher requires: power supply, data processing and overheat protection. Mount it at your preferred location.

Double-FuselageFlasher Fusion systems are available in three different variants, suitable for every installation:

Fusion DUO – MUST be connected to Nexus – add a CanopyFlasher / Nexus system separately. Can be connected with Flarm only via Nexus. Connects two FuselageFlashers to one single powerbox.
(This is the standard option when ordering a complete CanopyFlasher + double FuselageFlasher system).

Fusion DUO LITE – stand-alone version, NOT connectable to Flarm or Nexus. Flashes continuously with 3-flashes per 1 to 2,5 seconds (configurable). Connects up to two FuselageFlashers to one single powerbox.

Fusion DUO FLARM – connectable to Flarm (1x RJ12 IGC port), NOT connectable to Nexus/CanopyFlasher. Switchable enhanced AUTO- or Always-ON logic. Connects up to two FuselageFlashers to one single powerbox.

For single-FuselageFlasher systems, see FuselageFlasher + Fusion sets here.

Red or white LEDs? Your choice…

Let’s explain the pros and cons:

Red:

+ Better visibility of a white glider against a grey/white background. This is the most dangerous situation. Red clearly stands out.

+ Red means danger.

– Slightly less brightness (±7500 lumen) than white LEDs.

White:

+ Slightly better brightness (±8500 lumen) compared to red LEDs.

+ Better visibility against a brown/green background.

– Reduced visibility of a white glider against a grey/white background (in clouds, haziness, snowy terrain, etc).

Conclusion:

We recommend RED for bottom mounted FuselageFlashers.

We recommend WHITE for top mounted FuselageFlashers.[
