Description
The SkyRC PC1080 is a heavy-duty, dual-channel smart balance charger engineered specifically for industrial UAV and agricultural drone fleets. Featuring two independent charging circuits delivering up to 540W per channel (1080W total), the PC1080 is capable of simultaneously balance-charging two 6-cell LiPo or LiHV battery packs at up to 20A. Powered by an advanced 32-bit high-speed CPU from STMicroelectronics, it delivers rapid processing power and exceptional operational reliability.
Built for demanding field environments, the PC1080 incorporates Active Power Factor Correction (PFC) for 93% grid efficiency, a rugged conformal-coated circuit board to resist moisture and dust, and dual ball-bearing high-speed cooling fans paired with a fin-type aluminum heatsink. It also features a unique master-slave synchronization mode allowing multiple units to link together, compatibility with G630 charging hubs for sequential multi-pack management, and an anti-spark circuit for secure battery hookups.
