Ardopilot APM Voltage and Current Module

APM is a revision of the APM that makes use of an external compass. The APM has no on board compass, and is optimized for vehicles where the compass should be placed as far from power and motor sources as possible to avoid magnetic interference. APM is designed to be used with the 3DR GPS uBlox LEA-6 with Compass module. The GPS/Compass module may be mounted further from noise sources than the APM itself.

APM requires a GPS unit with an on board compass for full autonomy.

The on-board switching regulator outputs 5.3V and a maximum of 2.25A from up to a 4S LiPo battery. The Power Module comes completely assembled with Deans connectors, and wrapped in shrink tubing for protection.
