Description

The SFR-1 is a multifunctional module and combines the sound module USM-RC-3 and the
speed controller UFR-1230 in one unit. It comes with a large light control unit, three servo outputs and an port for the light modules LM-BT-16-4 and LM-IR-16-4 to transmit light signals to a trailer.

The SFR-1 is suitable for all types of RC standard transmitter. With the various setting options the SFR-1 can be easily adjusted to all model requirements and driving behaviours. For an easy start we have more than 140 ready to use sound projects and 700 sound files for various model types. Of course, own recordings can be used, as well.

All settings are programmed with the software SFR-1 Sound-Teacher and saved on a micro SD card. The programm is only for Windows, however with an emulator like WineBottler is is also possible to use the Sound-Teacher with a Mac or other operating systems.

Driving functions
One brushed and bell-armature motors (DC) can be controlled smooth and realistic with the SFR-1. An ideal driving behavior can be achieved through a large number of settings.

The speed controller on the SFR-1 has following characteristics:
  • Cruise control functions
  • Different brake functions (with hand- and emergency brake)
  • Adjustable load regulation
  • Adjustable mass inertia
  • Steering inertia (with adjustable steering ankle limits)
  • Adjustment of throttle curve for different driving behaviors
Sound functions
For an authentic sound of the model, sounds can be selected for following areas:
  • Driving and engine sounds for one motor (speed-dependent)
  • Additional sounds (e.g. horns, hydraulic and compressed air noises)
  • Random sounds (e.g. squeaking, animal and ambient sounds)
Own recordings can also be used.
Light functions
To realize different light effects, the SFR-1 has 16 switching outputs to connect LEDs, lamps, smoke generators and other consumers. Light functions, such as low beam, rear light, brake light, indicator lights, warning lights, flickering lights, etc. can be easily implemented and controlled.

All light functions can be activated or deactivated manually with a proportional channel or with nautic/multiswitche modules and automatically by sounds and movements.

The SFR-1 has a special port to connect the IR transmitter for the light module LM-IR-16-4 or the bluetooth transmitter for the light module LM-BT-16-4.

Servo movements
Next to the steering servo, there are two additional servo outputs to control various additional movements with synchronised sound.

Stephan aus Dresden:
Mit den USM RC 2 fing alles an (Truck 1:14), jetzt ist es ersetzt und das SFR 1 hat Einzug gehalten und sogar ein SFR 1 D (Smit Rotterdam) in meinen Modellen verbaut. Weiter so! Bin sehr zufrieden!
18.12.2022
Rudolph aus Reutlingen:
Einfach klasse. Ich habe bereits einige Beier-Module/-Regler verbaut und bin einfach nur begeistert.
Im Forumsbereich wird einem schnell und kompetent geholfen, was ich sehr schätze.
5 Sterne von mir.

Bernd aus Columbus,GA:
Mein erstes Beier Projekt mit dem SFR1 und dem LM-BT-16-4 Modul und muss sagen Ich bin begeistert. Das wahr wohl nicht mein letztes Projekt mit Beier Elektronik.
Auch der Service ist Super, hatte da probleme mit dem verbinden des SFR1 mit dem Bluetooth Modul das hat aber am bedienpersonal gelegen welcher naemlich die Anleitung falsch gelesen hat.

26.10.2021
Herbert aus Ansbach:
Zweimal habe ich bereits einen Soundfahrtenregler aus Ihrem Hause eingesetzt (Modelle Panzer u. Truck im Maßstab 1:16). Ich bin von diesen Modulen absolut begeistert und auch der Meinung, sie sind das Beste auf dem Markt. Bei Problemen hat man sofort den perfekten Service am Telefon. In diesem Fall ist es ja der Programmierer dieser Module und in wenigen Minuten ist das Problem absolut kompetent geklärt.

Nun aber zu dem was ich Ihnen eigentlich mitteilen möchte. - Ich habe aus meinem Lagerbestand einen 20 Jahre alten BiFi Truck 1/24 rausgekramt, um das Gefährt für meinen Enkel wieder zum Leben zu erwecken. Also alle Elektronik raus. Eingebildet habe ich mir, wenn ich die recht hohe Ausgabe in Beier Elektronik spare, wäre es eine billige Sache den Truck aufzurüsten. Aber da habe ich die Rechnung ohne den Wirt gemacht. Wenn ich jetzt zusammenrechne was ich in Hardware investiert habe, dass das Model sich überhaupt bewegt, wäre ich bei einem Soundfahrtenregler besser gefahren. Ich sage nur, ich musste in einen Fahrtenregler, ein Soundmodul, 2 Switch und mir noch eine Blinker Platine zusammen löten. Am Ende habe ich aber immer noch nicht was ein Soundfahrtenregler von Beier Elektronik leistet. -
Naja, aus Schaden wird man klug. Ab jetzt keinerlei Experimente mehr nur noch die Produkte von Beier-Electronic.

Das Beste was momentan auf dem Markt ist.

Alexander aus Wien:
Hab mir den SFR-1 zugelegt gleich als er neu am am Markt kahm und es ist einfach ein top Teil in Verbindung mit dem BTC-1 noch besser. Ich habe bereits den 4ten verbaut und werde ihn wieder verbauen.
12.09.2020
Thorsten aus Bottrop:
Bislang hatte ich Fahrtregler, Soundmodul und IR-Sender/Empfänger eines Mitbewerbers verbaut und nun den SFR-1, ich bin einfach nur begeistert. Die vielen Möglichkeiten, die der SFR-1 IN EINEM MODUL bietet, sind meiner Meinung unschlagbar. Vielfältige Einstellmöglichkeiten, Soundmodul an Bord mit vielen Sound-Möglichkeiten für die unterschiedlichsten Modelle und das zu einem unschlagbaren Preis. Einfach klasse, werde meine anderen Modelle auch auf Beier-Electronic umstellen.
06.06.2020
Ralph aus Nordhorn:
Habe mein SFR-1 jetzt seit gut einem Jahr im Einsatz und freue mich immer noch an den unglaublichen Möglichkeiten die es bietet. Verbesserungen und Neuigkeiten werden spitzenmäßig durch Updates geliefert. Spitzenklasse!
15.04.2020
Carsten aus Fuldatal:
Habe den Regler in mein neues Modell,Truppentransporter M577 APC aus den Film Alien 2(YouTube der Panzerschmied M577 APC) eingebaut. Wieder mal erste Wahl. Für meine Panzerschmied Modelle nur das Feinste. Und das sind mit Abstand die Produkte von Beier.
23.02.2020
Markus aus Wetzlar:
Das absolute Non plus ultra für den heutigen Funktionsmodellbau.
Dank des SFR1 konnte ich mir den Ardruino in meinen Modell sparen und konnte sogar noch mehr Wünsche verwirklichen.
Für Profis lässt sich so ziemlich alles einstellen, und für Anfänger gibt es eine Ordentliche Dokumentation und sogar ein Forum wenns mal wirklich irgendwo hängt.
Was besseres konnte ich nach langer Suche für mich nicht finden.
