We're thrilled that so many people have been using the Malenki-Nanos. Recently we have had a lot of brand new builders and we wanted to publish some helpful tips on how we wire up the Malenki-Nano-Integrated in our bots.
Starting with the image of it, at the bottom right you can see the "Double-Power-Distribution Rings" they're labeled in white as --PWR++
The two "+" rings are also connected to make it easier to connect a power (B+) wire from the switch (which would be connected to the battery connector) to the Malenki, and then to also connect the B+ for a servo or brushless ESCThe two "-" rings are connected to make it easier to connect a ground (B-) wire from the battery connector to the Malenki, and then to also connect the B- for a servo or brushless ESC
We generally wire power to the Malenki to the "middle" rings:
Positive / Power / B+ from the switch (from the battery connector) to the + ring next to the "R"Negative / Ground / B- from the battery connector to the - ring next to the "P"
The servo needs to get signal, power, and ground. We generally wire servos to WEAPON2 and the "outer" rings:
Signal (usually Yellow or Orange) to the WEAPON2 padB+ (Usually Red or White) to the + ring next to the ++B- (usually Black or Brown) to the - ring next to the --..
