Ive got 3 new power modules.

They are incapable of supplying much more than 400ma, so with GPS, Apm, Long Range reciever and Minim they are near the limit.

Any load near 400ma and the voltage drops to near zero.

I cant understand why they even mention 2 amps its completely misleading.

If you search the various forums the topic of APM power comes up over and over

I have flown and built RC stuff for 20yrs and the power design of the APM leaves a lot to be desired, it may be fine for Multis (or at least you will get away with it), but planes no way.

As an extra bonus all three have defective Deans male plugs on them, they are way to loose in whatever they are plugged into, wiggle them, instant brownout, no wonder guys are crashing.

I have verified that its the plugs themselves.
