The FT PDB X8 4\u201312S 300 A is a power distribution board designed for configurations supporting up to 8 motors<\/strong>. It receives power from 4\u201312S<\/strong> batteries and distributes it across 8 channels<\/strong>. The allowable continuous current of up to 300 A<\/strong> per channel allows the FT PDB X8 to be used in high-load power systems where the board needs to provide substantial current throughput. This configuration makes this PDB an effective hub for heavy multirotor UAVs.<\/p>\n

A distinct advantage of this model is the built-in BECs<\/strong> (5V<\/strong>, 9V<\/strong>, and 12V<\/strong> at 5A<\/strong> each) for powering the receiver<\/a>, video transmitter<\/a>, camera<\/a>, flight controller<\/a>, or other peripherals. This allows you to get the required voltage for your electronics without using an additional converter. A built-in analog current sensor provides measurement of the power system’s consumption, and there are also solder pads for outputting telemetry from the connected motors<\/a> to the flight controller.<\/p>\n

The 8 power outputs of the FT PDB are equipped with XT60 (Female)<\/strong> connectors and solder pads. Opposite each power output are contacts corresponding to the signal channels for motor control, S1\u2013S8.<\/strong> The LED indication<\/strong> on the FT Power Distribution Board X8 provides visual readiness monitoring for the BECs (separately for 5V, 9V, and 12V). Mounting holes for M3 dampeners with 30.5 \u00d7 30.5<\/strong> and 45.5 \u00d7 45.5 mm<\/strong> patterns expand the installation options on compatible frames.<\/p>\n
