This power distribution board streamlines power distribution for drones with a lightweight glass fibre construction. It is designed for integration with 1 to 8 ESCs and works across different multirotor configurations.
The board handles up to 20A per output for quadcopters, or adjusts to 10A each for octocopters, which is how the listing describes its 100A total rating.
It suits quadcopters, hexacopters and octocopters, and the listing mentions optional pre-soldered 3.5mm bullet connectors.
MK and KK compatible: fits MK and KK flight control mounting patterns.
1 to 8 ESCs: one board for quad, hexa and octocopters.
Lightweight glass fibre: only 8 grams.
Current per output: up to 20A on a quadcopter and 10A each on an octocopter.
Optional bullet connectors: 3.5mm bullets can be pre-soldered.
A power distribution board (PDB) takes the current from the flight battery and shares it between the ESCs and other parts of the aircraft. Instead of soldering every ESC lead to a single battery lead, you solder them to wide copper pads on the board, which handles the current safely and keeps the wiring tidy. Many boards also include voltage regulators, so that a flight controller, receiver or camera can be powered from the same board.
When you choose a PDB, check that its current rating comfortably exceeds the total of all your ESCs at full throttle, that its input voltage range covers your battery and that the pad spacing and connectors match your frame and wire gauge. Solder with a hot iron and plenty of flux so that each joint flows, and cover joints with heat-shrink.
Check every joint for cold solder and shorts before you connect a battery, and use a smoke stopper for the first power-up. A small hairline crack in a solder joint can heat up under load and fail, so re-inspect the board after crashes.
