FrSky RPM-Driven Adapter – AES RPM Sensor Power Adapter 04100489

FrSky RPM-Driven Adapter – AES RPM Sensor Power Adapter

The FrSky RPM-Driven Adapter is designed for use with RPM sensors that require increased drive power through the IGN port of the FrSky Advanced Engine Suite (AES) module. It allows compatible RPM sensors or tachometer-style inputs to connect properly with the AES RPM1/RPM2 ports for engine speed telemetry.

Key Features

• Designed for FrSky Advanced Engine Suite / AES II installations
• Provides increased drive power for RPM sensors through the AES IGN port
• Connects RPM sensors or tachometer inputs to AES RPM1/RPM2 ports
• Useful when an RPM sensor needs additional drive support
• Also compatible with standard AES-to-RPM sensor connections when the adapter is not strictly required
• Compact inline adapter for clean installation

Connection Overview

• IN Port: Connects to RPM sensor / tachometer
• OUT Port: Connects to AES RPM1/RPM2 port

Specifications

• Product: FrSky RPM-Driven Adapter
• SKU: 04100489
• Input: RPM sensor / tachometer
• Output: AES RPM1/RPM2 port
• Compatibility: FrSky Advanced Engine Suite / AES II RPM sensor installations

How It Works

The adapter is installed inline between the RPM sensor or tachometer output and the AES RPM input. For sensors that require additional drive power, the adapter uses the AES IGN port to provide the needed support while still feeding RPM signal data to the AES module.

What’s Included

• 1 × FrSky RPM-Driven Adapter

What You’ll Need

• FrSky Advanced Engine Suite / AES II module
• Compatible RPM sensor or tachometer signal source
• Compatible FrSky telemetry receiver and transmitter for viewing RPM data

Best Use Applications

• Gas-powered RC airplanes using AES engine telemetry
• RPM telemetry installations requiring additional drive power
• Advanced FrSky gas engine monitoring systems
• Large-scale aircraft using RPM, fuel flow, and temperature sensor telemetry

Why This Adapter Matters

Some RPM sensor installations require more drive support than a direct connection provides. This adapter helps ensure proper RPM signal handling when used with the FrSky AES module, improving the reliability of RPM telemetry in gas engine monitoring setups.

Modeler’s Tip

Use this adapter when your RPM sensor setup requires increased drive power through the AES IGN port, or when following an AES wiring setup that calls for an RPM-driven adapter between the RPM sensor and AES RPM1/RPM2 input.
