3.6 Power distribution board
PDB (Power Distribution Board), mounted on the Drone; the circuit board
organizes the power connections of batteries, ESCs, and other onboard systems. It is
unnecessary for all drones but helps create a neat and organized drone (
Figure 12
).
In particular, it is responsible for power distribution from the flight battery to each
electronic speed controller for the drone control board. In some cases, the PDB is also
used to power components such as the camera, LED taillights, and flight controller.
