The PowerSwitch MPX / MPX 6100 from PowerBox Systems was PowerBox Systems' first contribution to a significant improvement in switch security for large model aircraft. Produced since 1992, the PowerSwitch has been the subject of continuous development during subsequent years. Since 2001 it has been employed successfully all over the world in unchanged form and technology in large-scale models.
It is hand-made by highly skilled operatives, and is entirely 'Made in Germany'.
In March 2008 the PowerSchalter was further upgraded, and is now supplied with MPX connectors encapsulated using the Hot-Melt process. The positive wire is switched by means of four silver-plated double floating contacts. This guarantees a one hundred percent switched connection even when subjected to severe vibration.
Two ball-locks maintain the switch in the previously selected position even when vibration is severe.
