How to connect a 3DR Power Module to PX4/PX4IO

Posted by Jaime on January 24, 2014 at 11:28am

So, how in the world do you use a 3DR Power Module with the PX4?

I would like to be able to measure both voltage and current with the PX4, and using the direct connection to the battery will only give me voltage. Is there a way to connect the power module to the PX4? 

The WIKI for the power module talk about using it with the PX4, but it never says how to connect it. Any ideas?

    @Jaime,

    You don't. The PX4 FMU/IO module has its own PM and does not need the external 3DR PM module.

    Here is a picture of a typical PX4 FMU/IO setup:
