[Paparazzi-devel] Re:Electrical connections in the airborne equipment.

Hi Helge,

Great picture! http://paparazzi.enac.fr/wiki/Image:Diagram.png

I did almost the same setup for my Twinstar II and it s working pretty good for 
some hours 20-30h? 
The only thing I have made different is my receiver and encoder board is 
powered out of the TWOG in addition I have coupled two BEC s 
I have two ESC with a continuos 5 Ams BEC installed within my airframe and 
wanted to use them both. I have some bad experience with burned ESC so I 
coupled them with two diods to prevent the two regulators fiting each other. 
For me is working just fine and has the advantage that I won t lose control of 
all actuators if one ESC fails. 

cheers Tobi
