Hey everyone, I'm just doing research at this point trying to figure out the parts I want, and the interconnectivity of Motors, ESCs, PDB, and batteries with amps, and watts, and volts is REALLY throwing me off....
So The motor I want is the MB 2207 2400kv, according to a video by the only employee of Multicopter Builders that I know of, Rich, The motor produces 1700 g of thrust at 40 amps with a 5S battery (though no mention of prop size if that make a difference).
Awesome, I know I want a 5S battery.
So I also know that I need an ESC that produces at least 40amps, and from what I understand to be on the safest side, get an ESC that can put out a little more than that. So I was thinking 60 amp ESC.
60 * 4 = 180
So my understanding is I need a PDB that supports 180a total. (I'm having a hell of a time locating this...)
And I haven't even looked at 5S batteries yet...
Am I doing this right? If so, why the heck can't I find a PDB that'll support (4) 60amp ESCs
I'm just all sorts of confused.....
