TBS Lucid DroneCAN 20A Power Supply

The TBS Lucid DroneCAN 20A Power Supply sits at the centre of the drone to deliver stable, filtered power to the flight stack and its peripherals. Built for heavy-lift cinelifters, X-Class builds and commercial drones, it accepts a wide 3S-12S input and streams power telemetry over DroneCAN.

Key features

• Three independent step-down regulators: a 5V/4A line, a 12V/4A line and a software-configurable 9-16V line rated to 20A continuous.
• Wide 9-55V DC input range covers everything from 3S to 12S-class packs.
• Integrated current sensor and DroneCAN telemetry report live power data to the flight controller.
• Runs ArduPilot AP_Periph firmware, field-updatable via the DroneCAN GUI tool.
• Status LEDs indicate booting state and CAN bus termination at a glance.

Because DroneCAN carries power telemetry alongside the CAN bus data, the flight controller can monitor voltage and current on this module without a separate analogue sensor, simplifying wiring on complex builds.
