FuselageFlasher DUO

Elegant and streamlined. 360º.
On top, bottom, or both.

Measuring at 110mm long, 15mm wide and only 11mm high, the AeroFlash FuselageFlasher is extremely elegant and streamlined, made out of a super clear UV-resistant epoxy. Its small size does not say much about its ability: with 16, yes sixteen extremely bright red or white CREE™ LEDs (±7500-8500 Lumen!), the strobe is very well visible at distances up to 3km.

Mount it on top of the fuselage, on the bottom, or BOTH! Connect up to two FuselageFlashers to Nexus. No compromise. Only one small hole of 4mm is required for the cable. Mount it on a wheel door, or on an engine bay door for the least amount impact on the airframe, and maximum visibility.

FuselageFlasher DUO comes together with AeroFlash Fusion DUO (LITE / FLARM):

Fusion – power box – the heart of the FuselageFlasher

Nexus’ little brother, Fusion, is the heart for the control of the FuselageFlasher.

A compact, sturdy aluminium enclosure fits everything FuselageFlasher requires: power supply, data processing and overheat protection. Mount it at your preferred location.

Double-FuselageFlasher Fusion systems are available in three different variants, suitable for every installation:

Fusion DUO – MUST be connected to Nexus – add a CanopyFlasher / Nexus system separately. Can be connected with Flarm only via Nexus. Connects two FuselageFlashers to one single powerbox.
(This is the standard option when ordering a complete CanopyFlasher + double FuselageFlasher system).

Fusion DUO LITE – stand-alone version, NOT connectable to Flarm or Nexus. Flashes continuously with 2-flashes per 1 to 2,5 seconds (configurable). Connects up to two FuselageFlashers to one single powerbox.

Fusion DUO FLARM – connectable to Flarm (1x RJ12 IGC port), NOT connectable to Nexus/CanopyFlasher. Switchable enhanced AUTO- or Always-ON logic. Connects up to two FuselageFlashers to one single powerbox.

For single-FuselageFlasher systems, see FuselageFlasher + Fusion sets here.

Red or white LEDs? Your choice…

Let’s explain the pros and cons:

Red:

+ Better visibility of a white glider against a grey/white background. This is the most dangerous situation. Red clearly stands out.

+ Red means danger.

– Slightly less brightness (±7500 lumen) than white LEDs.

White:

+ Slightly better brightness (±8500 lumen) compared to red LEDs.

+ Better visibility against a brown/green background.

– Reduced visibility of a white glider against a grey/white background (in clouds, haziness, snowy terrain, etc).

Conclusion:

We recommend RED for bottom mounted FuselageFlashers.

We recommend WHITE for top mounted FuselageFlashers.
