Description

This Mauch MH052 Power Cube 2 V3 was developed in response to the increasing power demand of bigger UAV-s together with the Pixhawk/ PX4 based autopilot systems.  With this you can safely power both your autopilot but also any auxiliary systems such as a companion computer, gimbal, lidar etc..This is the dual power output system, if you need the secondary output voltage customised please contact us so this can be made to order for you.

Detailed Information

The Power-Cube series was developed in response to the increasing power demand of bigger UAV-s together with the new Pixhawk 2.1. The installed equipment, such as heated IMU’s, optical flow sensors, OSD, dual GPS, telemetry, companion computers, gimbal, camera, landing gear, parachute, digital servos, LED-s, Raspberry Pi 3, Lidar require additional and more reliable and robust power supply.

With all or some of this equipment the standard power modules are over-loaded or operating at their upper limits, which means there is a substantial risk of failure and overheating of the system.

The Power Cube series allows you to select a module that includes the required number of outputs you need ranging from 1 to up to 4 outputs.  This unit is the dual output version (Power Cube 2).

The first output is fixed at 5.3V, the second output can be changed to meet your power requirements, but this option is made to order, so please contact us before ordering if you would like this.

Safety rules for operation

Don’t use the Power-Cube to power up any high inductive loads, such as DC motors and any other high inductive load:
If you plan to use any output, to power up DC motors (brushed and brush less), then the maximum output allowable is 5A.
Never connect any output in series or parallel to other outputs.
