BLHELI ESC:

A.Features

A1: Use authentic electronic components to ensure high quality and enhance the current endurance ability of the ESC.

A2: Based on BLHeli firmware, optimized for high performance with great linearity and much quicker throttle response.

A3: Special designed for multirotors, and compatible with fixed-wing aircrafts and helicopters.

A4: Multiple protection features including Low-voltage cut-off protection / over-heat protection / throttle signal loss protection.

A5: Throttle range can be configured and is fully compatible with all receivers, providing smooth, linear and precise throttle response. A6: All parameters can be programmed via using a transmitter, including default settings.

1045 Propellers

Radio telemetry can be used for wireless communication between pixhawk and computer or mobile phone.

Radio telemetry V1

WIFI V1.0 and V2.0 use 8bit CPU, only support UDP

WIFI V3.0 use 32 BIT CPU, support TCP and UDP.

WIFI V2.0 and V3.0 use external antenna (5DB)

OLED Module can display some message.

MINI OSD

PDB:

VTX1000 is video transmitter,support 25MW-600MW,48 channel (with heat sink abd 3DBantenna )

FPV Camera

This article explains how to connect the ESCs, motors and propellers to a autopilot. The Pixhawk is used as an example but other autopilots are connected in a similar way.

Connect the power (+), ground (-), and signal (s) wires for each ESC to the autopilot’s main output pins by motor number. Find your frame type below to determine the assigned order of the motors.

Pixhawk Outputpins (numbered). First 4 pins are colour-coded for connecting a Quadframe

Motor order diagrams

The diagrams below show motor order for each frame type. The numbers indicate which output pin from the autopilot shoould be connected to each motor/propeller. The propeller direction is shown in green (clockwise, CW) or blue (counter-clockwise, CCW)

Recognizing clockwise and counterclockwise propellers

The diagrams above show two types of propellers: clockwise (called pushers) and counterclockwise (called pullers). The most reliable to recognize the correct propeller type by its shape as shown below. The thicker edge is the leading edge which moves in the direction of rotation. The trailing edge is more radical scalloped and usually thinner.
