PowerCube One (Carrier Board) Cube Not included

With the PowerCube One PowerBox offers an all-in-one power supply system for the CubePilot Cube Orange+ and Cube Blue H7 flight controller, all the associated sensors, radio system and 24 high-power servos. The two XT60 sockets are designed for the connection of rechargeable batteries or DC generator outputs. DC/DC converters of redundant construction provide 5V power to the CUBE and its peripherals, while an additional DC/DC circuit supplies a regulated 8V supply to the RC receiving system, the optional iGyro, GPS or True Airspeed Vario, and four servo sockets. The input voltage of 6V - 35V is available with minimal losses at all the other servo sockets. The entire power supply system is of redundant construction throughout. 

The PowerCube One offers a great deal more: all the telemetry data which is gathered by the PowerCube One, such as battery information, GPS or True Airspeed data (if an optional GPS III or BSTAV is connected) are passed via the CAN bus to the CUBE, where the information can be used for flight control, or alternatively simply sent to the ground via the MAV-LINK interface and RC telemetry. The RC receiver connected to the system (P²-BUS/EX-BUS/S.BUS2/SRXL2) can be used by the radio control system to activate a bypass, which circumvents the Pixhawk control system. In by-pass mode it is possible with a fixed-wing aircraft to revert to proven iGyro technology, which is easy to set up. This enormously reduces the load on the pilot during manual take-off and landing during the set-up and parameter adjustment phases of the PIXHAWK flight controller. All the servo outputs are freely assignable. If your aircraft features multiple servos actuating individual control surfaces, the PowerCube One offers a unique automatic servo-match function, which allows these servos to be synchronized in just a few seconds. Two door sequencers, operating independently of each other, can be used to control a retractable undercarriage and wheel doors, or other control sequences, using only one channel. Each sequencer can control up to six servos with individual timing. The unit features a full-color 2.4” monitor which is legible in sunlight. Intuitively designed menus and assistants for initial installation, servo matching or the door sequencer make it a simple task to prepare the system for operation.
