APM Power Module 5.3V DC BEC With XT60 Connectors ARDUPILOT APM 2.5.2
Function:
Used to detect the battery voltage and the battery current, flight control board receives two signals, calculate the remaining battery power, estimate the remainingflight time. In addition the module also comes with BEC function, you can output 5.3 DC, 3A maximum continuous current for the flight control board to provide a stable power supply. Another signal cable connectors are used in Japan original fittings, non-domestic joint, so APM flight control board and reliable connectionbetween the power supply module.
The maximum input voltage 20V, maximum current measurable 90A, to achieve the control panel on battery power and voltage monitoring. The design parameters ofvoltage and current detector design parameters consistent with 3DR official ground station (mission planer) settings can be set directly refer to the official Wiki
Please note that
APM Flight Control Flight Control supply the best players from PM port power supply, because the flight control board circuit has a power supply reverse voltage protection diode and a fuse, only the power from PM port access, this protection circuit only work, but the attendant negative effects after these two elements is the power will then produce 0.3 ~ 0.4V voltage drop, if an ordinary 5V power supply module, then the APM will not reach the voltage on the VCC 5V, if other loads (OSD,data transmission, receiver, etc.) also fly from APM control board direct power supply, then VCC voltage will be lower, there may not guarantee the normal operation of the flight control board, but our products are designed to 5.3V, can be perfect for the APM provides power
Note: The Power Module is only designed to power APM, a RC receiver and APM accessories (GPS, 3DR radio). It isnotdesigned to power servos. Use your aircraft's own ESC/BEC for that.
