Power Routing PCBs

Essentially a revived and update version of this project: Drone Power Routing Board

What:

• Basically a PCB that acts as a wire

• for peggy and/or fixed wing

• See Race Wire for 4in1 ESC - Oscar Liang for an idea of what we’re trying to do here

• As opposed to the old version above, this project will have multiple smaller PCBs instead of one huge one

• Can’t go on arms bc the PCB would be too long to manufacture

• Status LEDs to show when circuit is live?

• No connectors just solder pads (except connectors at battery)

• Can handle necessary current

• Shaped to airframe

Open

An idea of what this could look like

Why:

• More surface area for same weight of copper

• Easier to swap out motors

• Can never get cut, clip with something etc

• If designed well, has convenient, stable connection points between important parts of system

• minimize connectors

• easier to inspect all solder joints

• honestly just looks clean af

Who:

• To be assigned

When:

• Assembled and tested in F24?

Plan:

• More thought needs to be put into how this system will fit on our airframe

• Everything it will connect to etc
