Powertrain Part 3: Power Architecture, EMI Shielding & Electrical Safety

Back to All Logs

Power is supplied by two 6S 4,000 mAh 30C LiPo batteries connected in parallel (8,000 mAh total, remaining strictly under the 100Wh competition limit). High-current power lines are twisted pair structured, wrapped in grounded aluminum foil shielding (EMI Protection) to isolate Pixhawk and GPS sensors. Overcurrent protection includes a 150A blade fuse and an external manual power kill switch.
