System integration¶

For system Integration is this my system design.

alt text So I will have 2 power systems in my drone. High voltage and low voltage. High voltage 16,8V will be for the motors while the 5v will be for the MCU's and the LED matrixes.

I found out from the page from the ESC's that they output 5v at 3 amps each. Which is in total \(5V \cdot 3A \cdot 4ESC = 60Watts\)

In one of my projects earlier I have ran 2 LED matrixes from a 60 watt power supply and it could easily power them. The mcu's don't consume a lot of power so the power situation should be good.
