Hexacopter instrumentation and electrical consumption tests
Abstract
UAVS are aerial vehicles which help to perform specific tasks in sectors such as agriculture, military, entertainment, among others. These vehicles are characterized by being easily adaptable, having an infinite number of functions, which have been expanding since the day of their creation due to the modularity that they present, being possible to change flight controller cards, telemetry and even power distribution boards. PCB boards take a special place where they are forced to be improved due to the changing needs that drones have such as the increase of current to the decrease of weight by integrating various elements in an embedded system.
