Power Distribution board - Voltair - Fully Assembled - XT 60 Amp 9 JST
Product Description
Fully assembled version of VoltAir® is our new micro 60 amp power distribution board we manufacture - a small 50mmx50mm PCB - which makes it very easy to wire together up to 8 ESCs and addition power outlets for FPV and LEDs. Virtually indespensible with YSiix Hexii or Octa multicopters or Quads need several FPV and LED power outlets.
Hero Features
- Fully assembled as shown with mounting hardware included (see below)
- Connects directly to our ESCs in our store - hobbyWing 10/12/18 and Carbonbird 18amp ESCs
- Rated and tested to 60 amps continuous - tested to 72amps for 15 secs
- tiny 50x50mm - with standard 45mm holes - (measured square axis across) - 1.6mm RoHS gold plated PCB
- 4 Super thick 140um copper rings joined by 192 vias - so both sides of the board act together to conduct large amounts of current
- Plated holes for strength and 100% power delivery
- 9 sets of JST connectors for 8 ESC and 1 additional power out
- 1 thin wire +ve lead 150mm for ANDROMEDA LED board
- 4 x M3 mounting holes - unplated - to isolate
- 5 x M3 holes in the centre for wire routing if required
- Fits inside the inner deck of all SCARABS - Triicopter, QuadOcta and YSiix or Hexii - (except Stealth - - it can be used in astealth but requires modification)
Includes
- 1 x fully assembled Voltair® board - 9 JST outlets - as per photo
- 4 x 6mm nylon stand-offs
- 4 x M3 nuts nylon
- 4 x M3 6mm nylon bolts
Excludes/Requires
- Excludes Deans -> XT60 convertor plug
- Requires insulation from frame - use the supplied nylon stand offs and nylon bolts and nuts insulation tape after completion - do NOT bolt down directly onto Carbon plates (carbon conducts electricity)
- LiPo batteries are safe if handled correctly - if mis-handled LiPo Batteries will catch fire and burn at 700°C - Dont take risks with cheap chargers or short circuits
- Use of a fire resistant bag/container for LiPos - fully Fibreglass lined - not a fake
- Use a know/proven top brand charger limited to 4.2v per cell - calibrated - see Gearlist page
- Use all balance ports to monitor 4.2v per cell during charge
- Use of thermal protection - temp sensor attached on each lipo for cut-off of all power if the charge temp rises about 45°C
- Store LiPos at 3.8v per cell
Tips
- Information on assembling a kit can be gained by looking at the photos on the product page itself. If you stuck on an advanced kit then first read the Quad Noobs guide
- MultiCopters should hover at 50% throttle and fly for 10-15 mins.
- Balance all props - vibration causes junk sensors data and gello in video - remove the SOURCE of the vibration by balancing
- Use a quality prop balancer(Du-Bro 499 Tru-Spin Prop Balancer) statically; then run them individually to check they are centred true and the tipshave the same path; any vibration will reduce the effectiveness of the Wii gyro or anyother gyro.
- Attach any IMU or sensors such as Sirius™, NAZA or WookM with vibration isolation gel - Board with sensors solder to directly are just cheapo clones - commercial quality IMU use isolation vibration materials
- Keep your PROPS OFF - not installed - until you are fully conversant/understand in full the functions of your Tx in full including TRAV (end Points), the arm and disarm procedures - realise that for a noob skiping or out-of-order set-up steps or moving sticks, or even static - PROPS may start at anytime without warning. Never install props prior to calibration of the ESC and testing the gyro orientation, and arm/disarm testing of the board - YOU are responsible - make sure your actions and your Copter is safe - remove the prop -remove the risk.
- Always maiden on default PIDs' - If the copter is not almost perfect on default PID's then DO NOT go straight to altering the PID's! Most of the problems you will face as a noob will be caused by making wild assumptions or following myths from forums - fly on default PIDs first - balance your props - make sure your ESC are calibrated and synchronized.
- Dont be fooled by forum claims of kirby flashed ESCs - this software will melt your ESCs and give short flights - there is a lot of bad info on forums
Safety in Australian Skies
- Keep more than 30m from persons,choose an empty sports field for your first flights
- Do not fly near pets, houses or cars
- Never fly within 3nm of an airfield or above 400ft
- Never install your props until after the Multicopter is fully tested and 100% correct without props. Engines can start suddenly and without warning IF YOU FAIL to understand how they work or skip any steps.
- Set your Tx/Rx binding to low throttle 1/4 position so that if the link is lost the copter will descend slowly.
- Always keep your Copter in line of sight for one pilot ops - FPV is only legal in AU with a buddy on a buddybox - 2 person FPV is 100% legal using the buddybox system below 400'. See CASA Part 101 Regs
- RC Flying is a privilege - please enjoy it. Don't show off and don't get over confident
- Home movies are fine, but in Australia professional paid photography or videos from an RC aircraft requires CASA Part 101 compliance, including exams and approved ops manuals and pilot competency tests by CASA official which will cost several thousand up front.
