- – PM02D HV version is supported by PX4. For Ardupilot, it is supported in version 4.4 and later. Full setup guide can be found here.
- – This PM uses I2C digital signal data output and is not compatible with flight controller that uses analog PM such as the Pixhawk 6C & Mini, Pixhawk4 & Mini, pix32 v5, or Durandal flight controllers.
Description
PM02D provides regulated power supply for your Pixhawk® 5X & 6X from the battery, as well as current consumption and battery voltage measurements, all through a 6pin cable. The on-board switching regulator outputs 5.2V and a maximum of 3A from LiPo batteries up to 12S (HV). The Power Module comes completely assembled with XT60 connectors, wrapped in shrink tubing for physical damage protection.
It is not designed to power servos, please use your aircraft’s ESC/BEC for that. The Molex 2.00mm pitch CLIK-Mate Wire-to-Board connector is rated for 3.0A current per contact.
