Despite our CTO’s hatred toward coolers – “They are very unreliable and break all the time!” – we decided to incorporate two small ventilators into our ESC controller.
This addition not only provided redundancy in controller cooling but also allowed us to monitor them seamlessly with our power supply both before and during flights (all while savoring our coffee ).
Moreover, our goal was to minimize the weight added to the aircraft and keep assembly costs low. To achieve this, we opted for sheet metal elements and plastic screws. The latest model of @currawong ESC proved to be a valuable asset in meeting these objectives.
Regardless of our CTO’s opinion, we can’t deny that the final result looks rather charming.
