I have 3 solenoids to power for something in the range of a second or so. one singularly and the other two as a pair.
Ideally, they should give an external LED indication of operation (not a deal breaker if they dont)
the solenoids are
ZANTY SDK-0622-12A2
Type: Linear Solenoid
Total weight: about 32g
Plunger weight: about 7g
Size: 22.13014mm
Magnetic Holding: 80-0gf
While 50% duty cycle
Max on time: Pull≤1S, Relax≤100ms
Power(20℃): 8W
Rated voltage: DC12V
whats the best way to power these ? should i just use a std RC with or can i get the pixhawk to do this for me and control it through ardupilot properly?
using the relay stuff, you dont need to get ta rc controlled relay, just a standard relay will do. The flight controller will put out 3.3v when its active and 0v when its not. Rather than a servo pwm signal. The ideal thing is probably a 3.3v solid state relay, such as this one (not tested just found one on google)
is this work bro? I recently got a project with JF0826b Solenoid
