## Overview

The Power Module V1.0 is a high-performance power control unit designed for Pixhawk and APM flight controllers. It supports input voltages from 6 to 28V (up to 30V max), accurately senses currents up to 90A, and features a pre-soldered 6P Molex connector for easy plug-and-play installation. Compact and lightweight, it delivers stable voltage regulation with a 5.3V/3A switching output, ensuring reliable power delivery for your drone’s critical systems.

Review: Power for days - When I was putting together my hex-acopter with the APM Flight Controller, I missed the piece where I needed to have a Power Module to convert down to the FC. I did some research and ended up purchasing this module. After reading that someone burned up their copter I was very hesitant to plug this in, but went for it. This unit worked PERFECTLY as described and I haven't had a bit of bad luck with it yet. The APM cables are very long and the connectors are tight. The clear shrink wrap around the module is thick and provided a lot of protection. The only think I don't like about this, is the fact that I need it which isn't a draw back from the unit. I am using it on a DIY Hexa Copter with APM 2.8. I WILL purchase this product again.
Review: Works with 6 cells for Pixhawk. - It's working fine for a 6-cell Pixhawk build, as the 3DR power module will not handle six cells. A star off because the included cable did not seem to be compatible with the Pixhawk but the power cable that came with the Pixhawk seems to work OK.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Since the escs output 5v and plug into the apm and receiver is this not enough and the reason the pm is needed?**
A: The power module is optional (bit highly recommended). It allows you to power the APM, as well as monitor battery voltage and current usage. You could feed the 5v from the ESC to the servo rail to power as well I think (and most do as a matter of redundancy). However a filtering capacitor and voltage limiting diode may be required (they were with my Pixhawk).I use one of these power modules for my 6S batts, and keep a spare power module on hand. They're cheap, so why not.over 20 flight hours logged so far and no issues with this power module.

**Q: Will this work with Pixhawk Board 2.4.8?**
A: Yes, it will work with the Pixhawk 2.4.8 Board. That's actually what this reviewer uses.

**Q: Will this work with APM 2.8?**
A: Yes.

**Q: How is this holding up for everyone? Didnt burn anyobes FC up?**
A: One didnt work at all,  just fell apart while installing, second one no issues so far.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Power for days
*by I***D on August 16, 2016*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works with 6 cells for Pixhawk.
*by E***G on December 27, 2015*

It's working fine for a 6-cell Pixhawk build, as the 3DR power module will not handle six cells. A star off because the included cable did not seem to be compatible with the Pixhawk but the power cable that came with the Pixhawk seems to work OK.

### ⭐⭐ Voltage readings inconsistent
*by A***D on October 8, 2019*

Even after extensive calibration and setup in Mission Planner, voltage reading fluctuates a lot and it is inconsistent. At one voltage level it is correct just to be way off when voltage changes. I did not have this problem with the original 3DR PM. I used it with Pixhawk Mini.
