Aikon F4

Description

FC with no PDB aimed at multi-rotor and fixed wing use, Aikon F4 features a carefully-chosen timer design which allowed to run 4-6 motors with burst DSHOT with maximum efficiency. On board are dedicated pads for ESC telemetry, VTX and camera control. Boards also features an 11-pin connector for plug-and-play connection with Aikon AK32 4in1 ESC, providing voltage, current and ESC telemetry reading with no additional wires.

FAQ & Known Issues

  • First revision has no diode protecting the 5V input on the 11-pin ESC connector, make sure to pull the 5V wire coming from our ESC in order to avoid two regulators fighting against each other
