Spektrum SPMAR20410TS AR20410T 20-Channel PowerSafe Receiver with Synapse AS3X and SAFE Stabilization Module

The Spektrum™ AR20410T PowerSafe™ receiver is a feature-packed 20-channel receiver with full-range telemetry. Spektrum PowerSafe receivers are designed for models using numerous servos and accessories that draw excess current, such as those found on giant-scale airplanes and jet models. Now, with innovative features like fast boot recovery, regenerative servo support, remote sleep mode, and the all-new Synapse AS3X+ module.

The revolutionary Spektrum Synapse™ Flight Stabilization Module is vastly improved over its predecessor, the AS3000. Equipped with the all-new AS3X+ stabilization algorithm, the Synapse has been rigorously tested by experts throughout the hobby and has been put to the ultimate test. Spektrum has taken years of customer feedback on the AS3000 and purpose-built the Synapse with turbine aircraft and giant scale in mind. Its lightweight design and innovative features make it the ideal choice for pilots needing the best in-flight stabilization in today’s world of complex models.

Historically, pilots had to reduce the performance of stabilization systems by lowering gains to fine tune to their personal feel. Now, our new parameters of stop lock and release rate allow you to customize the feel of the gyro system while providing optimal stabilization performance.

With the Synapse we are introducing the ability to adjust AS3X+ and SAFE settings with 10 customizable channels for all flight controls. This allows pilots to precision tune their aircraft while in flight. Additionally, we’ve also added support for configuring auxiliary outputs, which means you can now stabilize outputs tied to mixes or other outputs that are separate from your traditional wing types. For example, if you had flaps that were set up to become ailerons using a mix and a flip of a switch, you can now configure those surfaces to have stabilization as well.

We've added support for multiple gyro systems within a single device. This provides the equivalent functionality of running multiple gyro systems or flight controllers within one system, allowing you to add stabilization to unique outputs such as thrust vectoring or canards without the need of buying an additional gyro. Changes were made to the gyro filtering for improved response time. This allowed us to essentially double the effectiveness of our gains in some cases. Ultimately, this helps to further increase aircraft stability in rough air.

Lastly, significant improvements were made to how heading hold mode operates. Now, transitions between user inputs and heading hold are more seamless which provides a more natural feel in flight. With the Synapse we've isolated the sensor in Synapse to combat against acoustic interference that might be seen in some turbine applications. All of that is wrapped in a beautiful aluminum case with three vibration-damped mounting points.

Paired with the new Spektrum AR20410T PowerSafe receiver, it is an incredible combo of advanced stabilization and cutting-edge electronics.

DESIGNED FOR GIANT SCALE AND TURBINE APPLICATIONS

Spektrum has taken years of customer feedback on the AS3000 and purpose-built the Synapse and AS3X+ algorithm with turbine and giant scale aircraft in mind. We’ve vastly improved the flying characteristics, designed the system to operate flawlessly in noisy turbine environments and given you 20 stabilized outputs. Now, you can genuinely set your new model’s gyro up in less than 5 minutes without a PC, cables or stick position commands. It’s so easy, anyone can do it!

NEXT GENERATION IN FLIGHT STABILIZATION

The all-new AS3X+ features a vastly improved stabilization algorithm that has been rigorously tested by experts throughout the hobby. The system is even easier to tune and can be easily optimized for any type of aircraft you fly. Never again spend hours tuning and tweaking until you get your aircraft locked in. We’ve been able to set up most aircraft in less than 5 minutes including the first flight tuning.

Key AS3X+ improvements include:

• Stop Lock and Release Rate parameters
• Heading Hold improvements
• Improved gryo filtering
• Canard and Thrust Vectoring Support

NOW WITH SAFE

You now have access to our SAFE technology at the flip of a switch which can potentially turn any disastrous situation into a complete recovery. Have the confidence and seconds you need to regroup after an orientation loss or distraction at the field. SAFE can even be selected for the failsafe position with predefined bank and pitch angles. SAFE has saved thousands of aircraft and can potentially save yours.

THRUST VECTOR AND CANARD SUPPORT

Our new multi-gyro system provides support for thrust vectoring and canards. This offers the equivalent functionality of running multiple gyro systems or flight controllers within one system. No additional gyro units needed!

ALUMINUM CASE

The Synapse case is machined aluminum with three grommeted hard mounts for easy installation in most aircraft

ACOUSTIC ISOLATION

Synapse’s gyro sensor is encased in a sound and vibration reduction insulation designed for turbine applications. While other systems require third party sound damping, we’ve designed Synapse to work flawlessly in most turbine applications.

LOCKING SENSOR CABLE

Synapse’s sensor cable is now designed with a locking connector on the RX side and the sensor side is internally mounted inside Synapse. This ensures that your synapse remains connected to your receiver regardless of in-flight vibrations.

SLEEP MODE

The AR20410T receiver features an advanced power management system designed with sleep mode allowing pilots to remotely power on/off from the transmitter. This exciting new feature allows you to power up your model’s electronic system at the press of a button. No hatch removal or physical switches are needed, and it is extremely convenient for a day at the flying field.

FAST BOOT RECOVERY

The AR20410T PowerSafe receiver features innovative Fast Boot technology that allows the Synapse system to reboot in flight upon power interruption. The technology skips various start up checks and provides the pilot control instantly using a saved stabilization calibration.

“BLACK BOX” TELEMETRY LOGGING

When a micro-SD card is inserted into the receiver, flight information will be logged for later retrieval. This includes flight log data, battery status and other important telemetry stored over time. This can be helpful for diagnosis performance.

Black Box captures the following data:

holds, frames, fades_0, fades_1, fades_2, fades_3, rssi_dBm, rssi_Pct, fp_volt, rpm_us, rxVoltage, currentA, currentB, voltsA, voltsB, chargeUsedA, chargeUsedB, tempF, altitudeFt, tempC, altitudeM

12 Volt and Regenerative Servo Support 12 Volt and Regenerative Servo Support

The AR20410T Supports 12v servo operation and can handle any number of regenerative servos. A huge leap forward in support for future technology improvements in the servo world.

SRXL2 SUPPORT

Easily connects and communicated with any of Spektrum’s SRXL2 products such as the Spektrum SKY and our Smart ESCs. Additionally, some third party sensors and modules will use SRXL2.

USB C UPDATING AND REGISTRATION

Easily download, install updates and register your receiver on our Spektrum community website. Special cables are no longer required!

MOMENTARY PUSHBUTTON

The included momentary pushbutton is designed to be installed in your aircraft to allow booting and shutting down the system. With a unique press and hold pattern, accidental shutdowns are extremely unlikely. Additionally, the AR20410T receiver has its own power switch that can be used instead.
