Overview
ESC Verteiler is an open-source printed circuit board by Triso01, from the Triso01/FPV-Stack repository on GitHub. It is a 4-layer board of 45.5 × 46 mm with 42 parts on 15 nets, routed with 115 tracks and 614 vias.
It is built around the LMR14010ADDCT. Its parts include 13 capacitors, 5 connectors, 4 resistors, 3 ICs and 2 diodes. It belongs with the robots and motor control boards of this library.

README.mdMy FPV Stack
Note: I made it because I want to learn how to make BLDC-ESCs, Designing my own FPV Stack, it WILL have errors, so do NOT use it in your Drone! The 4 in 1 ESC will be continued later, I don not have the experience to finish it yet.
Flight Controller:
- No Analog OSD, made for BetaFPV P1 or optionally Walksnail and DJI
- BEC: 5V 3A; 9V 3A
- IMU (Gyro): ICM-20602
- STM32F405
- Buzzer Pads
- 1 UART free to use e.g. for GPS

ESC distribution board:
10V Buck, 3,3V LDO and the ampmeter
[Will be finished, when I have more experience]: 4in1 ESC: Based on EFM8BB21, FD6288Q and 24 PSMN1R4-40YLDX. The PCB size is not final yet, it WILL change.
- Bluejay (Laout A), BLHeli_S compatible
- Dshot bidirectional compatible
- Current Sensor: INA168 with a 0.5mOhms shunt
- LMR14010 10V Buck to provide Gate voltage
- AP2204K LDO 10V -> 3.3V (You can see "pictures" when opening the PCB Files with KiCad)
What are the boards for?
The Flight Controller (FC) is the main control board and the "brain" of the FPV stack. It runs the flight-control firmware and uses its IMU to measure the drone's movement, which is required for stable flight.
The ESC Distribution Board distributes one battery connection to four individual ESCs. It also generates the 10 V gate-driver supply, and measures the total battery current.
Each Electronic Speed Controller (ESC) drives one three-phase brushless motor. Designing this small, high-current board was the most challenging part of the project.
Now the expensive things (duhhh):

Questions
How big is the ESC Verteiler PCB?
It measures 45.5 × 46 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.64 mm thick.
What parts does the ESC Verteiler use?
42 parts, built around the LMR14010ADDCT. 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 Verteiler KiCad files?
From the Triso01/FPV-Stack repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is ESC-Distrib-PCB-Files/ESC-Verteiler.kicad_pcb and its schematic 4 in 1 ESC [OLD]/4 in 1 ESC.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the ESC Verteiler design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Triso01 before reusing the design.
