2.1A is an impressive spec for that size. The remote function is even more impressive. Amazing work

[@fractalengineering]

Thank you very much; not too much to it really, just a spin on a feature already existing on the IC

[@yumyumyumxD]

This is so cool!

[@HasanProd]

what's this for?

[@fractalengineering]

5V voltage booster for FPV drone; you can read more about it on the link in description

​@@fractalengineeringthis is cool shit

[@slidehouse5]

Hi, how do wire it? Can you go from: FC power pads to Boostyboi to power wires?

[@fractalengineering]

input goes to battery output to your device (usually VTX) -- I just added a diagram on the product page lol

[@slidehouse5]

Cool thanks!

[@AlpineTheHusky]

Always put in holes on connection pads. Someone in always gonna complain...like me :b. But for real a through hole is always good for testing and hookup

[@fractalengineering]

I purposefully went for single-sided pads so that the board may be placed flat against the frame without risk of solder seeping through and shorting out on the conductive carbon fiber

[@AlpineTheHusky]

@@fractalengineering Well you got vias on the pads...atleast I think those are vias

[@fractalengineering]

@@AlpineTheHusky correct, tiny ones though, and covered with silk screen on the B side; haven't found seep through to be an issue

[@AlpineTheHusky]

@@fractalengineering I never had vias specially covered because that costs extra at most places and Im a cheap bugger. Will you do efficiency measurements?

[@fractalengineering]

@@AlpineTheHusky haha same here; fortunately there was no need for it as I just covered the opposite side with silk screen, I've just added a little white rectangle over the vias on the back side Absolutely planning to make a proper power/efficiency sweep, working on automating the measurement protocol by SCPI; will be a whole other video

[@YosiSaad]

Out of stock :(

[@TheSchizoDuckie]

Genius man. How many amps can it switch?

[@fractalengineering]

thanks mate, the IC is rated 2.1A

[@baggszilla]

Very Kool! Thanks!
