Questions

How big is the Esc PCB?

It measures 79 × 91.1 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Esc use?

160 parts, built around the AD8221ARMZ, IR2103STRPBF, MA702GQ-P and USBLC6-2SC6. 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 Esc KiCad files?

From the NikonPic/full_motor repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is esc/esc.kicad_pcb and its schematic esc/amplify.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Esc design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask NikonPic before reusing the design.
