Follow the link immediately below to download the 'aeropodconnectiq073119.pdf' instructions, which now includes powerpod v3 setup. This versatile POwErpod gives you a battery backup for a single POE enabled device. With a 10,000mA battery it will ensure your devices stay running during short power outages.Series available outputs: 12VDC - 18 VDC - 24VDCInput Voltage 3.7V - 11.1VPassive PoE Output Voltage 5V - 24VDCHigh Power 24WBattery Capacity 10,000 - 15,000mANon-compliant PoEDual Output power for connecting 2 power.
There is an inherent problem with a power pod for an electric motor vs a glow engine that was more common 'back in the day'. The electric motor prefers a larger diameter propeller than a glow motor, so the height of the pod above the wing can become a big issue, causing extreme nose-down pitching at launch (low airspeed and high power). Powerpod power banks are portable chargers for your mobile device. Recharge your device anywhere, anytime. Never run out of power again. Also check out our other great products, including high quality cables, wall chargers, earphones, and much more! Their PowerPod technology supplies off-grid renewable electricity to offshore infrastructure, such as wind turbines or oil and gas platforms. This reduces reliance upon offshore diesel generation. PowerPod can also be combined with offshore wind infrastructure to generate both wave and offshore wind energy at the same location offering.

PowerPod-LANC: A special PowerPod for SONY, CANON, PANASONIC cameras with LANC remote connecters
The PowerPod-LANC is a compact motorized base that pans and tilts a camcorder under your computer's control. In addition, the PowerPod-LANC includes technology to control optical zoom and focus via the LANC connector found on many Sony, Canon, and Panasonic camcorders.
The PowerPod-LANC's combination of features make it a great choice for Sony owners interested in using their camcorders for computerized surveillance and webcamming. Robotic pan and tilt mean you conduct surveillance over a large space with a single camera that you point at different spots as needed. Or, use it as a hi-res webcam and move around the room freely while the camcorder follows you. Optical zoom control keeps the video quality sharp and professional, no matter how far away the subject is from the camera.

What is LANC?
LANC is a connector found on Sony camcorders, and some camcorders from other manufacturers, that can accept lens control instructions. To check if your camcorder has the LANC connector that makes zoom control possible, look for for a small jack similar to a headphone connector, usually labelled with a stylized 'L.'

LANC is a wired remote communication interface developed by the Sony Corporation and is found primarily on Sony camcorders and some Canon camcorders. LANC (or Remote) compatible camcorders have one of the following two interface connectors: If you are looking at current Sony camcorder specifications (at SonyStyle.com or in your user's manual), look for 'A/VRemoteTerminal' under Connections and/or 'Remote' in the list of Functions on that A/V terminal. Unfortunately, Sony is not consistent in listing the 'Remote' Function under the 'A/V Remote terminal,' but the designation of 'Remote' in the terminal name generally means the Remote Function is present. Below is a guide listing of LANC/Remote Compatible Camcorder Models (HD/SD Digital and Analog) compiled from data gathered off the Internet. The very latest models may not be listed yet and the list may not show all compatible model numbers. This listing is sorted in alpha-numeric order and Sony camcorders are grouped by Series (i.e. DCR and HDR series). Note: Camcorders with the A/V-Remote terminal are listed below inBlue, and those with a 2.5mm LANC/Remote jack are listed inBlack.

You should further verify if a particular 8mm or older-model Hi8 camcorder actually has a LANC jack (most do - some don't).

Note to Canon owners:If your camcorder uses Firewire (IEEE 1394) for video output, you can use ourregular PowerPodto control the camcorder's optical zoom via Firewire.
Canon owners please also note: Canon is seems to phasing out Firewire 400 with it's newer HD cameras, and has again begun to offer optical zoom control, through LANC, on many of it's newer camcorders.
A LANC port may be either built into the camera, or offered as a optional module that clips into the camera's 'mini smart shoe'.
