The new MiniPRO Inertia engine dynamometer (Dyno) was designed for testing nitro and gas engines. This is an essential tool for break-in, test and tune your engine to achieve maximum performance.
The load on the engine is produced by the inertia flywheel unit – a high quality 6061 aluminum frame cover around the flywheel to protect from high rpm speeds; and an embedded Dyno board to accurately measure the acceleration of the DUT (device under test).
The Dyno uses a pinion/gear combination to accelerate the inertial mass (flywheel). Our embedded dyno board takes the flywheel’s inertia (resistance of an object to a change in its state of motion), and measures the rate it takes to accelerate it and calculates the output power and torque of the DUT. Our dyno repeatedly measures and calculates power in small increments to produce an accurate graph on a PC of the motor’s power characteristics.
Precise, otherwise known as “repeatability” is what you want in a Dyno, that means test the same engine time after time and get the same results. Our dyno is capable of repeatable test results using the built-in Throttle controller sensor (license required) and a correction factor sensor (sold separately) to standardize the measured engine power by accounting for variations in environmental conditions like temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure, ensuring that power readings from different testing days can be accurately compared even if the ambient conditions are not identical; essentially, it allows you to see the “true” power of an engine regardless of the weather on the day of testing.
