APM/Pixhawk Power Module with XT60 Connectors & Battery Monitoring

The APM/Pixhawk Power Module with XT60 connectors combines a regulated flight-controller power supply with battery voltage and current monitoring. It connects between the flight battery and power distribution system, with a six-position signal harness for a compatible autopilot power port.

Key features

• XT60 connectors and pre-attached power leads for integration into compatible drone and RC builds.
• Onboard switching regulator with a supplier-stated 5.3V output for the flight controller and suitable low-power peripherals.
• Analog battery voltage and current monitoring for supported autopilot systems.
• Compact circuit board with protective clear covering and supplied signal harness.

Specifications

Compatibility and setup

Intended for compatible APM and Pixhawk systems. Check your controller's power-port connector, pinout, voltage limits and battery-monitor settings before connecting. Similar-looking modules have different ratings; confirm this version's input limit and sensing range rather than assuming every APM/Pixhawk module supports the same battery.

Configure and calibrate voltage and current readings in your flight-control software. Power servos and other high-current accessories from a separate suitable ESC/BEC. The regulated output does not reduce the main battery voltage supplied to the ESC.

Frequently asked questions

What does this power module do?

It supplies regulated power to a compatible flight controller and provides battery voltage and current signals for monitoring.

Can it power servos?

No. Use a separate appropriately rated ESC/BEC for servos and high-current accessories.

Is the 90A figure the BEC output?

No. The supplier's 90A figure refers to current sensing in the main battery circuit, not the low-voltage regulated output.

Will it plug into every Pixhawk?

No. Connector types and wiring differ between controllers. Verify the power-port pinout and use a suitable cable for your model.
