CubePilot Power Brick Mini - For PixHawk 2.1 and Cube
by CubePilot

The CubePilot Power Brick Mini is the essential power management solution for your Pixhawk 2.1 (The Cube) flight control system. This compact and lightweight module provides a steady, clean power supply to your autopilot while simultaneously monitoring the voltage and current levels of your battery. By feeding this critical telemetry data back to the Cube, it allows for accurate real-time power monitoring and fail-safe alerts during flight.

Designed for efficiency and ease of use, the Power Brick Mini is rated for up to 8S LiPo input, making it compatible with a wide range of drone configurations, from standard 4S racers to high-voltage long-endurance platforms. Its 30A continuous current sensing capability is perfect for medium-sized UAVs, and it can handle short bursts up to 100A. The unit comes pre-wired with XT-60 connectors and is wrapped in protective heat shrink, ensuring a durable and "plug-and-play" experience for builders and operators.

This power module is a staple for RC hobbyists and professional drone operators alike who require reliable data for battery endurance. For STEM and university robotics programs, the Power Brick Mini serves as an excellent tool for teaching power distribution and sensor integration within the Pixhawk ecosystem. sUAS contractors and government entities also rely on this official CubePilot hardware for its proven reliability and precise current sensing in mission-critical applications.
