New Addition to the Commander Family
With the MiniCOMM, we will be able to close the gap between the
Commander BASIC and our flagships Commander SA-1000 and
SA-5000 in the entry-level area of model truck construction.
The MiniCOMM is the perfect fusion of both remote controls: It
combines the technical performance of the Commander BASIC with
the high-quality design and standard found in the SA-1000 and
SA-5000.
The EXPERT versions of the SA-1000 and SA-5000 are more geared
towards discerning model-building enthusiasts. A new joystick
made of solid stainless steel offers even more precision,
especially when it comes to controlling hydraulic models. We
have added a bit of quality to our existing remote controls
with this upgrade.
All Commander
remote controls including remote controlled trucks and
construction machines from ScaleART can be found in our online
shop.
Commander EXPERT – For Discerning Enthusiasts
Our high-quality Commander SA-1000 and Commander SA-5000
remote controls fulfill the wishes and needs of most
customers. The EXPERT line, is primarily aimed at model
builders who are looking for a remote control that offers
quality, precision and elegance. In terms of functionality,
the EXPERT models are identical to the Commander SA-1000 or
SA-5000. However, we have equipped the new remote controls
with a specially designed joystick featuring Hall sensors
instead of a potentiometer as in previous models. The joystick
is milled from solid stainless steel. All bearing positions
are ball bearing free of play to one hundred percent. This
offers unprecedented precision that cannot be topped.
MiniCOMM – The Compact Entry Model
In contrast to the Commander EXPERT, the MiniCOMM represents a
somewhat leaner version of the Commander flagships SA-1000 and
SA-5000. Weighing in at 850 grams, the little brother is quite
a bit lighter than the models. For the compact size, the big
3D joysticks were replaced by handy potis. The aluminum
housing, levers, knobs and controls are manufactured in the
usual high quality, so the MiniCOMM is just like its big
brothers. It can also hold its own in terms of technology.
With a total of two proportional joysticks, six proportional
rotary controls, twelve switching channels in up to eight
levels, up to 128 servos can be controlled. The MiniCOMM offers
a somewhat economical yet less elegant entry into our
Commander series. Thanks to its compact and handy design, the
new remote control is suitable as a supplement to your SA-1000
or SA-5000, for example as a second transmitter for
“travelling” new additions.
Affordable upgrade to Commander EXPERT
Thanks to the MiniCOMM and the EXPERT models, our Commander
family has again grown quite a bit – and now adapts even more
individually to customers’ truck models. By the way: Those who
already own a Commander SA-1000 or SA-5000 from ScaleART don’t
need to buy a new remote control for the EXPERT version. We
can upgrade the SA-1000 and the SA-5000 with new joysticks and
twinsticks to Commander EXPERT in-house. However, the new
joysticks are not available for sale separately.
