I have been trying to find out the Power requirements (mA's) for a full set of sensors including ArduPilot Mega 2.5+ without any luck.

Can anybody please assist me with this info.

Thanks in anticipation.

    My Board with APM2.5+ + PM + AirSpeed Sensor +  uBlox GPS + RC receiver pulls about 130mA @ 12V.

    If you are going to use the sonar the datasheet says it pulls max peak 100mA at 5V (i.e. ~50mA at 12V) The sonar is for ArduCopter only, The Airspeed sensor is for ArduPlane only.

    Optical Flow I don't know, but the board PX4FLOW is for PX4 only.
