Either connect the electronic speed controllers (ESCs) directly to the autopilot OR use a power distribution board (PDB). When using a PDB, connect the power (+), ground (-), and signal (s) wires for each ESC to the PDB according to motor number.

2023年7月19日 · PDB’s essentially distribute the power from the battery to the drone esc. But the technology has improved so much in recent days that PDB’s also distribute power to some other peripherals such as FPV Video Transmitters, FPV Cameras …

2024年8月3日 · In this step we will connect wires between motors and ESC’s, between ESC’s and PDB, connect our battery leads, and add a 5V BEC. You will need: To get accurate measurements, first locate mounting position for the ESC’s. We will install our ESC’s for this build on the Arm Tube clamps using double-sided tape and zip ties.

SmartAP PDB (Power Distribution Board) is a board which allows transferring the power from the battery to ESCs / Motors and generate power supply for the autopilot and other peripherals with different voltage levels. Also, PDB provides the functionality for battery voltage / …

You will need to connect motor cables to electronic speed controller (ESC) bullet connectors (each motor must connect to only one ESC). Connect ESC Deans connectors to Power Distribution Board (PDB) Deans connectors.

2020年6月20日 · Your ESCs go to your PDB for power, and the signal line goes to your FC. PDB provides your battery voltage to the ESCs and the FC tells the ESC what to do. Red goes to + and black to -. Reply

2017年4月9日 · To power the board connect the BAT and G terminals on the back of the LUX to VCC on your PDB. Actually the LUX board takes VBAT directly, 2-6S. It probably won't even turn on with 5V. You need to use the white (signal) wire and the black (ground) wire. The red wire from the ESC (+5V) should not be connected.

2019年11月17日 · The FC typically gets power from PDB if using one or else might get power from a BEC (basically voltage regulator or buck converter built into ESC to power the FC and/or receivers from the same battery used to power the motors).

2024年3月16日 · Normally you are right and ESCs get connected directly to the battery. However on this flight controller you have a built-in PDB / BEC with voltage- and current measurement. So yes, if you don’t continously exceed 90A you are supposed to connect the battery and the ESCs to the WLITE and route the ESC supply current through the FC.

2019年5月16日 · This video is part of my "Beginners guide to building your own drone" course. It's 1 of 61 videos in the playlist that makes-up the complete tutorial series....
