Thank you for the information and the quick responses, I really appreciate it.

Is there any way you can get me the part number for the outlined part?:

@Vinny

I can gladly provide more context.

I was using the 12v 3A power supply (MPS-00005-1) for powering my VOXL2-Mini through the VOXL2-Mini ESC.
I have been doing this for months now for benchtop development. I don't use it when I am doing any motor tests; I use batteries for that.

Nothing "blew up". I heard a "pop" at one point. Assumingly from the power brick.

What happened: I lost SSH connection to the drone, and looked over to see the LEDs had shut off. I unplugged the power to the drone, then reconnected, to see that that did nothing. No LEDs on the VOXL or ESC (which usually have, quite obvious, LED activity). I had another drone handy, and plugged that into the power supply. It worked for a few minutes, then gave the same issue. No power, no LEDs.

Applied multimeter to power supply and saw 21v. Stopped there.
[edit] I shouldn't actually say I stopped there. I have an an adjustable power supply available, so I tried 12v from that into the ESCs. That did not work. Power supply acts as though the lines are shorted or reversed. It shuts itself off when that happens. [/edit]
Thank you!

The EE coworkers were curious and dug the power brick out of the trash... "Well there's your problem!"

Hello there,

My Voxl-Mini ESC just blew up.

Two, actually.

The 12v 3A power adapter that we ordered from ModalAI decided to start outputting 21v.

I didn't notice until I had lost two ESC's.

I was wondering how this could be remedied...

Thank you!

Thank you!

Hello there,

I was hoping to get CoO's for the parts of the Sentinel drone.

Also for Microhard adapter boards.

Thank you!

Hello there,

We're working on a project using the Voxl2 Mini, and we were wondering if it's possible to order the mini without any connectors on it.

Thank you,
