you can use these 2 frames to predict best combination of motors escs lets assume a pixhawk controller motors-off power consumption is about 12 watts. On a 4S battery, that's about 800mah. That includes: - Flight Controller (Pixhawk with single GPS/Compass and all usual attachments) - Communications (Telemetry radio and UHF RC Receiver) - Video System (Video transmitter, gimbal, and camera power) - Lighting (LED position and strobe lights) you can use 4s or 6s of any capacity for combinations. |
