Frequently Asked Questions:
Q1. What is the primary difference between the Mauch HS-050-LV and an "HV" (High Voltage) sensor board?
Ans. The primary difference lies in the maximum input voltage they can handle. The Mauch HS-050-LV (Low Voltage) is designed for lower cell count batteries, typically up to 6S LiPo. An "HV" (High Voltage) sensor, such as the HS-200-HV, is built to withstand and accurately measure from much higher voltage battery packs, often up to 14S LiPo or more, making it suitable for larger industrial drones.
Q2. Does the Mauch HS-050-LV Sensor Board connect directly to my flight controller for telemetry?
Ans. The Mauch HS-050-LV Sensor Board outputs analog voltage signals for current and voltage. For most modern flight controllers (like Pixhawk, CubePilot, etc.) that typically expect digital inputs (e.g., UAVCAN, I2C) or a specific analog scaling, this sensor board usually needs to be paired with a compatible Mauch Power Module (e.g., PL-100 or specific PL-xxx series) which processes and converts these analog signals into a format the flight controller can understand.
Q3. Why are pre-attached 12AWG wires important for a 50A current sensor?
Ans. Pre-attached 12AWG wires are crucial for a 50A current sensor because 12AWG is a suitable gauge to safely carry up to 50 Amps of continuous current without excessive heating or voltage drop. Having them pre-attached ensures proper soldering and a secure connection directly to the sensor, simplifying installation for the user and maintaining the integrity of the power path for accurate measurements.
