6S ESC Capacitor 470uF

A 470µF low-ESR electrolytic capacitor designed to suppress voltage spikes and electrical noise on 6S FPV drones. Soldering a capacitor to your power input is essential for protecting sensitive electronics—like your flight controller, ESC, and video transmitter—from the aggressive power surges generated by active braking and motor desyncs.

Key features

• Suppresses high-voltage spikes to prevent blown ESC MOSFETs and 5V regulators.
• Filters out electrical noise, significantly reducing analogue video interference and gyro twitching.
• Optimised 470µF capacity provides effective filtering for 6S builds without adding excessive bulk to your stack.
• Low Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) allows rapid response to high-frequency power fluctuations.

Specifications

• Capacitance: 470 µF
• Supported input voltage: 6S LiPo (22.2V nominal / 25.2V maximum)
• Type: Low-ESR radial electrolytic

Solder directly to the main battery pads (VBAT and GND) on your ESC or power distribution board. Keep the capacitor legs as short as possible to maximise noise-filtering efficiency, and always verify correct polarity before powering on—the printed stripe indicates the negative terminal.
