Questions
How big is the DronePCB PCB?
It measures 158 × 68 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the DronePCB use?
167 parts, built around the CC1101RGPR, DRV8231DDAR-JSM, LMR33630BDDA and DMP3098LSD-13-VB. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the DronePCB KiCad files?
From the nickzentmayer/EE300W-R6Drone repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is DronePCB/DronePCB.kicad_pcb and its schematic DronePCB/BatteryCharger/Battery_Charger.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the DronePCB design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask nickzentmayer before reusing the design.
