Frequently Asked Questions

What is the input voltage range for the Matek PDB-XT60?

The Matek PDB-XT60 operates within an input voltage range of 9-18V DC, making it compatible with 3S and 4S LiPo batteries. This provides flexibility for various FPV drone setups. Ensuring your battery voltage is within this specification is crucial for proper board function and component safety.

How many ESCs can the PDB-XT60 support and what is the current rating?

This PDB can support up to 6 ESCs. It provides a continuous current of 25A for 4 ESCs or 15A for 6 ESCs. Peak current handling is 30A (x4 ESCs) or 20A (x6 ESCs) for 10 seconds. This capability ensures robust power delivery to your propulsion system.

What are the output voltage and current specifications for the integrated BECs?

The PDB-XT60 features two regulated BEC outputs: 5V at 2A (max 2.5A for 10s) and 12V at 500mA (max 0.8A for 5s) when using a 4S LiPo. For 3S LiPo, the 12V output is approximately battery voltage minus 1V. These outputs power your flight controller and FPV gear.

Can this PDB be used with different drone frame types?

Yes, the Matek PDB-XT60 is designed with 6 pairs of ESC solder tabs, making it suitable for both H-type and X-type drone frames. Its compact 36x50mm footprint allows for versatile integration into various multirotor builds, ensuring efficient power distribution regardless of frame geometry.
