BatMon is a module that connects to you batteries to "smartify" them. BatMon reads the cell voltage, current and relays it to autopilot or the onboard computers. We made a quite a bit of improvements in the latest v3 devkit. The most important is…
"We have launched the online store for batmon at rotoye.com now"
"You can check out BatMon at http://rotoye.com/"
UPDATEWe have some good news. A battery manufacturer Titan Power is working with BatMon kickstarter backers to assemble BatMon into Lithium Ion batteries for free! Backers also get a 5% discount on Titan batteries upto $1000 purchase. Now, you can…
"Batmons do not have an electronic safety cutoff. It relies on the autopilot to make the decision to land/cutoff power based on the state-of-charge data provided by Batmon"
Designing electric multicopters for a specific flight time is a complex multidisciplinary optimization problem. This short blog post is some of my thoughts on how to think about this problem. Obviously, there so many different ways of doing this and…
"You can PM me for ordering a battery. "
"Hi Thomas,
We have the "smart battery monitor" developed already
Battery alarms aren't good enough enough for accurate battery estimate"
We have the "smart battery monitor" developed already
Battery alarms aren't good enough enough for accurate battery estimate"
Over the past couple of months, we have been working on a "smartification kit" to obtain accurate state of charge for Lithium batteries. Currently most systems use voltage based capacity estimation which is inaccurate and make it hard for flyers…
"@duncan, Sure. Please PM for more details."
"@Francis, we haven't tested with solo, but since it's using pixhawk, it should be."
"We didn't have enquiry for lower than 6s batteries. But can make 4s versions if there is enough interest."
"@Evan, there is hardware and module support for reading cell voltages. There is just some minor aspects that have to be changed, which can be shared if you are interested."
