Drone Wire Harness and Connector Selection: Pitch, Locking, and Thermal Considerations

Application Context & Design Challenges Drones concentrate a flight controller, electronic speed controllers (ESCs), a gimbal camera, GNSS and inertial sensors, and a high-discharge battery into a lightweight airframe. In operation the interconnect system is exposed to continuous broadband vibration from the rotors, repeated mechanical shock during launch and landing, and a wide outdoor temperature […]
