X11 plus weird sound from motor

Thing is, cube Orange don’t hold so much S like my motors, my motors holding from 12s and cube holding maximum 8S, so that’s why I give power for cube from one battery, 6S.

62

Are the motors running with 6S + 6S (12S total) ?

Is the Cube Orange powered by a power module connected to one of the 6S batteries?

Is the Motor current flowing trough the Cube Orange power module?

63
  1. Yes motors working with 12S
  2. Yes cube orange powered by one battery.
  3. I didn’t understand that well, could explain ?
64

Please post a schematic picture containing:

  1. Battery 1
  2. Battery 2
  3. Power module
  4. ESCs
65

you don’t listen to us, our esc is with motor, i will give you link about those. XRotor X11 Plus

I listen to you my friend.

Just do a schematic of:

  1. Battery 1
  2. Battery 2
  3. Power module
  4. ESCs+Motor.

I need to know if the motor current flows trough the Power monitor.

If it does it is very dangerous.

Looks like you did not read the information I posted in post 57 yet.

68

And I also fixed some incorrect information on the X11_plus template and created a new windows installer with it.

I give to power moduleI give to power brick just from one battery so I don’t reach even 40. I reach only 22.2. From one battery, I sending you scheme, sorry for quality, it was first time when i doing this. Screenshot (3).png | Files.fm.

Voltage and current are two very very different things.

I think you mean 40Ampere (current) and 22.2 Volt (Voltage).
You can not compare voltage to current. Those are different, and the numbers will be different as well.

According to your schematic the motor current will not go through the power module. You only connected the XT60 input plug of the power module, not the output XT60 plug of the power module.

That is good, the motor current will not damage the power module (40A limit).
But that also means that you can not measure the motor current with it :frowning:

This doesn’t make sense. The cube is powered from 5.3V, it doesn’t matter what the battery voltage is as long as the power module you are using can handle the battery voltage, 12S in your case, and the total current for all.

This one is 14S capable and 200 amps max for example. Power module

Hello, i just got new module to pixhawk 6x pro, and i see you guys know a lot about power, so my battery monitor PM02D not showing any voltage, I have tried with usb and from batery and nothing helps, I made those settings about I2C, still nothing, what it could be?

@dkemxr I already done it, and still nothing.

  1. Are you using https://holybro.com/products/pm02d-power-module ?
  2. Is it configured for HV (12S) according to

  3. Did you connected the cables to the CubeOrange I2C port?
  4. Did you configured it for I2C battery monitor type?
  5. Is the current consumption of your vehicle bellow 60A at all times? If not you should consider buying a PM08
76

Where i should but another side of I2C cable?

77

You need to connect the I2C cable to the I2C plug of Cube Orange. If there is no cable, you need to manufacture one.

78

And please answer all the questions. One by one.
