Robust and versatile handset
February 1st 2007 As sole UK distributor for all HBC-radiomatic (HBC) radio control products, Crane Care, has launched the German manufacturer's new Quadrix handset onto the domestic market. Smaller and lighter than its various counterparts, the Quadrix remains a robust and versatile piece of equipment which offers safety and performance. With a standard range of 100m, the handset is claimed to be ideal for controlling up to three twostep drives thanks to its eight individual reinforced two-step push buttons. These are easy to operate when wearing gloves, with six being reserved for drive commands, while the other two are used for such functions as 'crane on', 'horn' or lights on/off'. The high performance rechargeable NiMH battery means that when used for around two hours per day, the Quadrix can work for up to 20 days without the battery having to be recharged. Weighing only 330g, the Quadrix is user friendly, fitting comfortably into most pockets while still promising the same high levels of performance and functionality as its predecessors.
