VOXL FPV ESC Current sensing

[Dronodev]

Hi guys,

I’m planning to use a VOXL FPV ESC and was wondering whether the current sensor detects not only the current drawn by the motors but also the current drawn from the payload connector J2.
Does the payload current get sensed as well?

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Dronodev
Yes, the payload connector J2 is included in the system current sensing.
If you needed to get independent readings, you could disable all motor spinning, and get current readings from CH2 which would effectively give you all local quiescent current (including VOXL 2 loads) plus the payload at J2.

Hope that helps.

@Vinny Yes, thank you very much!
