5.3V 3A APM Power Module with XT60 Connector
The APM 2.5/6 Power Module is a simple way of providing your APM 2.5/6 with clean power from a LiPo battery as well as current consumption and battery voltage measurements, all through a 6-pos cable. The onboard switching regulator outputs 5.3V and a maximum of 2.25A. The Power Module comes completely assembled with XT60 black connectors and wrapped in shrink tubing for protection.
Used to detect the battery voltage and the battery current, the flight control board receives two signals, calculates the remaining battery power, and estimates the remaining flight time. In addition, the module also comes with a BEC function, you can output 5.3 DC, 3A maximum continuous current for the flight control board to provide a stable power supply.
Note: The Power Module is only designed to power APM, an RC receiver, and APM accessories (GPS, 3DR radio). It is not designed to power servos.

1. What is APM Power Module in Quadcopters/Drones?
- The APM 3 power module is a battery eliminator circuit, a type of voltage regulator. Used to prevent high voltage to the ESC and pass the required voltage. Modern RC airplanes use high voltage batteries so you can power the receiver, servos and other accessories from the main he battery without having to use a separate low voltage battery. The APM 3 Power Module is an easy way to not only power the APM 3 from a LiPo battery, but also provide power consumption and battery voltage measurements, all over a 6-position cable.
2. How do you connect AMP power module to Pixhawk?
- Pixhawk is as easy as connecting a 6-pin DF13 cable from one of the supported power modules to the Pixhawk's "power" connector, as shown below. This module supplies the Pixhawk with a constant ~5V, allowing the Pixhawk to measure the current and/or voltage of the main battery.
