AeroDynic 24R-RC

[trialman]

Hey guys,

I recently purchased an AeroDynic with red domes and siren which looked like a normal 24R to me. It's supposed to come off a Fire Chief truck and has a FS TS100 siren.

Now that I pulled the domes to check and refurbish the bar, I found the tag "24R-RC" in it.
A quick research did not bring any results - can anyone tell me what "RC" means on this bar? Can't tell a difference from the normal 24R.





Thanks!
Darius

The RC would be a custom number I believe, but the internals look standard. Perhaps it refers to a custom dome pattern.

Interesting find..
I'm gonna hold off until I hear from the "experts" before I chime in..

Dome patterns were never stamped into the name plate. I'm not sure what it's supposed to designate

Only a thought. Can it be that the customer had order it with reversed rotation so it flash like an AeroDynic?
Have you checked if the motor polarity is reversed?
This might be possible if the customer did not want to reverse polarity of the whole bar.

Is it possible to get a shot of the motor and gearbox?

 

[trialman]

Here we go. Will try to power up as soon as I can.

 

[Stampeed Valkyrie]

Nothing odd about the gearbox either.
Could the RC be an acronym for a department or agency?

 

[trialman]

Cleaned, polished and put new domes on. Will make it an all-blue later on.
Can't tell a difference from my 24XQ when it runs... but thanks for your hints about the "RC" tag anyway.

Video, man! Where's the bloody video!! Don't make me invoke
Article XVII again!

 

[trialman]

You are right Sir, but I want to fix one broken bulb before posting a video. It just looks crippled like this.

This is the video as promised, with all new blue domes:

Also put a new AeroHawk video on the same channel.

The TS100 is just a speaker, not a siren.

The sirens that would have been used with that bar include the PA15A series 1E, PA20A series 2E, PA150, PA200, PA1000, and PA300.

Assuming a FedSig siren was also installed with the lightbar

Dang, that's a beautiful bar, but it sounds like a Dietz diesel!

Might not be related to the RC thing, but the motor connecting point is on the side of the cage. I have always seen them on the tops. ..

Something is telling me that "R" word is a reverse......
