Product Information
In the world of quadcopters, flight controllers (FCs) offer more innovation and choices compared to those for wings. However, due to limited wiring space, lack of current sensing, and the need for specific voltage rails, separate wing FCs are a must. Existing wing - specific flight controllers often create a messy bundle of wires in your wing, which can either cause reliability problems or just look unappealing. This TBS PDB is mainly designed for TBS's upcoming wing, but it's super versatile. It can work with any wing that has up to 4 control servos and one or two motors. It's a great option to tidy up both your analog and digital builds and reuse one of those 20x20 or 30.5x30.5 FCs you probably have lying around. Specifications: It can handle a max input voltage of 60V (14S). The voltage sensor depends on the FC voltage input. The current sensor can handle 200A in bursts and 90A continuously. It offers output voltages of 12V 4A (for LED, FC, etc.) and 6V 4A (for servos). The recommended FCs are TBS Lucid 20x20 FC Freestyle or TBS Lucid H7 (not included). It supports various onboard peripherals like 20x20 and 30.5x30.5 iNav or ArduPilot FC, BLHeli/AM32 ESC with telemetry, TBS M10 GPS, analog camera (3 - pin), analog VTX (5 - pin), and COB LEDs (12V). You can also connect digital VTx, radio link, and other peripherals via the FC. Note that the voltage input to the FC can be switched between VBat and 12V. When using 12V supply, a separate voltage divider is available for vbat sensing. What's included: You'll get a TBS Wing FC circuit board, cables to connect FC peripherals to the PDB, pin headers for servo plugs (2x20), and FC mounting hardware which consists of 4x M3x5mm screws, 4x M3x10mm screws, and 4x M3 Nylon standoff 10mm. You can also browse more AIO Boards, Flight Controllers, and TBS products.
Using the TBS Lucid Wing PDB is straightforward. First, gather all the components included in the package - the circuit board, cables, pin headers, and mounting hardware. Install the recommended FC (like TBS Lucid 20x20 FC Freestyle or TBS Lucid H7 if you have them) using the provided screws and standoffs. Connect the FC peripherals to the PDB with the cables. Make sure to double - check the voltage input to the FC. You can switch it between VBat and 12V. If you choose 12V, use the separate voltage divider for vbat sensing. When it comes to maintenance, keep the PDB clean and free from dust. Check the connections regularly to ensure they are secure. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or moisture. If you notice any issues with the current or voltage readings, refer to the specifications and troubleshoot accordingly. Also, be careful when handling the delicate components like the circuit board and cables to prevent any damage.
