Posted by Abdullah Al Mamun Khan on January 2, 2014 at 11:09am

Hi I'm having some trouble. The motors I'm using for my quadcopter draws 60A of current. I am using this ESC.

http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__16366__Turnigy_dlux_70A_SBEC_Brushless_Speed_Controller_w_Data_Logging.html

It has a switch type BEC that is SBEC. as for high current I cann't use the 3DR power module as far as I know. How I can power the apm board using the SBEC? Please help

If you have no servos, then you can plug it into the output side with JP1 in place.
If you have checked the voltage is not higher than 5.25v, and you are very careful about polarity, you can plug it into the Input side or Analog side pins with JP1 removed.
