I believe the Air had its own electronics? If so I am also remembering it needed to see battery voltage to turn on? I will have to look deeper into this.

 i know it has its own electronics but it can also be used with an external controller(according to the manual:says to turn voltage setting screw way up to defeat built in charge controller settings),which i wish to do main reason because i have a 48v turbine and 12v battery bank.

the other reason is syncing stages. because i already have two classics networked for follow me.dont mind getting a third to make charging better.

Ah ok. Well there is not a preset curve as such but it would not be hard to dial one in pretty quick. I can also work with Primus and see if they have any interest in giving us the power curve.

Ryan,

I know everyone has been real busy at MN but any further thoughts on the wind curve learning addition to firmware?

It is still really close to the top of the list. boB has a few things above it but it is still a priority.

Yes, that's the FUN stuff !!   Murphy's law says that this cannot be the absolute top item on the list !  (I think)
