Frequently Asked Engineering Questions (FAQ)
How does onboard Edge AI affect drone flight time?
Neural accelerators consume 15W–60W, which represents ~5%–10% of total hover power, trading modest flight time for real-time autonomous perception.
Why enforce an 80% Depth-of-Discharge (DoD) limit?
Discharging LiPo/Li-ion cells below 20% causes irreversible lithium plating and severe cell cycle degradation.
What C-rate discharge is safe for high-payload drones?
Continuous discharge rates between 2C and 5C maintain low internal resistance and minimize thermal buildup during hover.
