Questions

How big is the Drone ESC PCB?

It measures 64 × 38.5 mm and has 6 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Drone ESC use?

66 parts, built around the BSC014N06NS and XRCGB24M000F3A00R0. 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 Drone ESC KiCad files?

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

Can I use the Drone ESC design in my own project?

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