1. Sound units

All offered digital sound units are reproducing original engine- and special sounds. The engine range covers starting, engine idle, reeving up the engine, acceleration, speed dependent engine sound, returning to idle state and engine shut down. Available special sounds are horns, flaps, weapons, radio messages, depending on the kind of sound unit.

Up to two speed signals can be scanned directely at the receiver to determine the moving state of the model. This makes it ideal for tracked vehicles.
It can be used in combination with burshless or common DC motors.

To ensure maximum output power at large scale vehicles, a external amplifier can be used. Different amplifiers covering a lorge power range are on stock.

Universal switching outputs can be used for starting sound depending actions, like flashing a LED, move a motor, ...

A fully dynamic and sound synchronous smoke generator for exhaust simulation is also available.

The following control modes are possible:

A: Encoder
This rotary switch / push button combination must be connected at a spare proportional channel of your transmitter.
For mechanical installatioin already present extension places of your TX can be used usually. (Only two wholes are necessary)
The desired sound is selcted by one of the 12 rotary switch position and triggerd by the push button.
This allows a convenient, quick and direct sound selction.
In principal the encoder is a simple potentiometer with 12 fix positions.
Price: 65 Euro

B: Direct control by a spare proportional channel of your radio
A common proportional channel, equipped with a 3-position switch at your TX can be used to control the soundunit.
This switch should have a neutral position and momentary contacts to both sides. Permanent switching is also possible, in case the switch is centered manually.
Control mode “Indirect Soundselection”
The desired sound is selected by flicking the switch x-time up (according to the desired sound number).
The selected sound is triggered by flicking the switch down.
A already selected sound can be triggerd multiple times without a new selection (f.e. MG bursts).
This mode allows triggering all sounds and functions loaded at the unit.
Control mode “Direct Soundselection”
The desired sound is simply selected by flicking the switch up (sound1) or down (sound2)
Control mode “Autostart”
This mode does not need any control channel. Fist acceleration of the motor starts the engine. If it runs 20s idel, it is shut down automatically.
This control mode does NOT offer any special sounds(f.e. horn).

For installing the soundsystem in your model, common RC-modelling solder skills are necessary. The offered componets are parts of a soundsystem, created by the customer.
Please see the manuals for further descriptions.

We have an extraordinary sound collection of different vehicles which is constantly enlarged.

2. Audio Amplifiers

1x40W power amplifier “made in Germany”
This digital audio amplifier has the smallest dimensions, nearly no weight and highest efficiency, resulting in very little self heating.
Highly suitable for leight weight foam aircrafts. It can be powered from 3-6S LiPos.
It can be operated with any speaker technology (traditional cone speaker or “Exciter”).
The speaker impedance should be adapted to the supply voltage.

1x40W amplifier manual (PDF) Price: 59 Euro

2x60W digital power amplifier, Version 2

Ideal amplifier for 12-24V powered large scale vehicles like tanks.
Small dimensions, low heating and VERY powerfull !
This amp. comes together with the “Audo-Isoloator” preventing any grounding problems.
-> see detailed descriptioin below.

Hint:
This amp. can be combined also with the TBS5 sound unit. In this case the Audio-Isolator is not necessary. Picture
(Illustration similar)

Datasheet Price: 79 Euro

1x30W digital power amplifier
This imported amplifier has similar propberties than the 1x40W amplifier. The lower output power of 1x30W is enough to drive one or two R10S speakers at their capabilities. It can be connected directly to the TBS Mini V2 without any external cirquitry.
It will be delivered 100% tested, cables are included.
(Illustration similar)
Hint:
This amplifier can’t be connected directly to the TBS Mini V1. This requires an external volume controller.
-> See TBS Mini V1 manual page 10

2x10W digital audio amplifier

Ultra compact 2x10W digital amplifier for vehicles.
High efficiency and nearly no heating results in astonishing volume.
Ideal in combination with the TBS Mini V2 soundunit.

Supply voltage: 7,4 - 15V (2-4S LiPo or 12V Battery. NOT suitable for 7,2V NC battery packs!
Dimension: about 40 x 30 x 7 mm
Weight: about 15g

2x10W Manual (PDF) Price: 29€

Audio Isolator
This device ensures a electrical / galvanic isolation between the receiver and main battery. It is simply plugged between the soundunit and the external amplifier and separates the two power sources properly.
It is highly recommended if already a ESC with optoisolator input for the speed signal is used.

It prevents any “ground loops” or noise feed into the receiver supply by the ESC for example. This may happen through devices beeing connected to the receiver AND to the main battery (f.e. by sound units having a internal power amplifier or ESCs without a “opto input”).
Such devices connect minus of the receiver to minus of the main battery!
The “ground mess” gets even worse, if multiple external amplifiers are connected to a sound system directly.
If a soundunit is powered by a separate battery, NO Audio-Isolator is necessary.

In addition, the device allows powering an amplifier by a main battery having more than 6S (see manual).

Attention:
The audio isolator MUST be plugged at the SPEAKER connector of the TBS Mini V2! NOT the amplifier connector.

Different Visaton brand speakers are on stock.
We will recommend the most suitable one for your application.

For aircraft applications the following speakers are recommended, in combination with the 1x40W amplifier:
2 pcs R10S (Ideal setup for airplanes) or 2 pcs SPX-21M (at limited space in the model)
A very good alternative for foam models is using an Exciter (-> see below)

B: Exciter or Transducer “speaker”:
This kind of “speaker” is reduced to the drive/motor of a conventional speaker. It is installed on any surface which acts as the membrane, producing the sound. How it will sound, depends on many factors.
F.e. mechanical siffness of the material, its shape and density.

Please note that the whole structure (f.e. hull of of plane) can vibrate heavily, according to the set volume!
All installed items are exposed to it.
Up to now NO vibration damages are reported.
Exciters were already used also in wood and GFK models sucessfully.

We tried to find out which speaker technology is the best. For this, we did a test series, using different exciters and conventional speakers on different objects.
The result can be found here.

This is the recommended installation guide for a exciter.

Two examples of exciters

4. FAQ’s
This section will be extended continuously
- Why are the Benedini amplifiers so expensive?
Our amlifiers are import taxed, are delivered with plugs and cables, are 100% tested and include 19% VAT.
Sourcing 3rd party amplifiers on your own is no problem but there will be NO support at all !
External connections are on your own risk. Possible typical damages can be traced and are out of any warranty.
Just to make this very clear in advance !
- Why is the TBS Mini V2 more expensive?
The price for the old TBS Mini V1 was never increased for 10 years! I covered all price changes. Beside that production cost of the new Mini is higher.

4x40W analog power amplifier (at 14V, 2Ohm speaker, 10% THD)

Tbs Sound Cards App

This high power amplifier can be combined with all Benedini Soundunits. It has a internal “max volume” indication.
This means the volume can be increased until the LED starts flashing. Of course this requires speakers with a according power rating. The combination with our R10S or SPH-30 speakers is ideal.
The amplifier can be operated with 1-4 speakers:
Speakers Nr.1+2 are connected by the main plug, speakers Nr.3+4 by solder pads at the bottom of the PCB.
Using a 4S LiPo power supply is ideal. 3S supply is possible. The capacity depends of the number of speakers. For 30min flight and two R10S speakers, about 1500 mAh are recommended.

This high power amplifier needs sufficient cooling. It MUST be mounted in a well ventilated area of the plane (airstream) !
Power supply range: 9-18V
