Hi all

need a bit of help

I have just bought one of these as a compact all in one mounting solution for my Pixhawk

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/231726496585

Before I connected it to my Pixhawk I tested to outputs of the power lead and found that the two outer pins +5 & Grd where reversed.  Is this because the APM and the Pixhawk power sockets are wired differently to each other or is there an issue with this PDB

Its sold as APM & Pixhawk compatible

Anyone using one, how did you get it working

thanks

Paul

You are lucky, that you checked GND/Vcc before connecting.

This has nothing to do with Pixhawk / APM , the original 3DR Powermodule or quality alternatives are working with both. Same pin assignment. Nothing reversed.

Sometimes customers are getting punished for buying cheap stuff.




Paul-H

Yep

Swapped all the wires around and now its working

It turned the PDB was correct, its the module supplied with my Clone Pixhawk that was wrong
