Pololu 5v and naze32?

       Remove this ad - become a site supporter!
Hi,
I have a qav210 and was wondering how I wire the pololu 5v step down to give power to the naze32? So far I've just soldered the pololu on the pdb and don't know what to do next.
Thanks in advanced

Re: Pololu 5v and naze32?
You're just about there. Now you just need to connect the "voltage out" and "ground" wires to a free motor input on the Naze32 with a female JR connector. You should have your four motors already connected so you'll have two free motors inputs to choose from. Just make sure you leave the signal wire empty for that connection since you're only interested in the ground and power.

Hope that helps!

Re: Pololu 5v and naze32?
One more question if you don't mind. I am also running the immersionrc 5.8ghz 600mw hooked up to lumenier cm650 which runs 5v to 20v. It gets power from the pdb using a jst connector. Do I need to hook up the pololu to this also or is it okay without it? Also should I run a lc filter?
Thanks

Re: Pololu 5v and naze32?
You should be able to leave it hooked up directly to your PDB as long as your battery is within the 5v-20v range but you could also hook it up to your 5v if you wanted. Whatever is easiest for you to wire up. Having said that, you might want to try it on the 5v and see if the video is any cleaner, it could smooth out the power a bit.

I wouldn't worry about the filter right now but if you find your video isn't clean you could try dropping one in later to smooth it out.

Re: Pololu 5v and naze32?
Okay sounds good. I am running a 4s battery so I'll be safe to run the fpv without the step-down. I did notice if I punch the throttle and give really fast turns the video does static pretty bad so most likely I will add the lc filter. How would I wire the pololu to fpv?

I think you should be good to run two black wires and two red wires out of the power out on the pololu and run one set of wires to the camera and the other to the FC.

Re: Pololu 5v and naze32?
Thank you so much. So the red and black wire for the camera, I can just solder them to pdb where I have my jst connector for the immersionrc?
