IFlight Anti Spark Filter 18*16mm for XT60 Connectors

Introduction

The iFlight Anti Spark Filter is an essential component for any FPV drone enthusiast looking to protect their valuable electronics. When connecting a battery, a significant current surge can occur, creating a spark at the XT60 connector. This spark is due to the high current flow into the low ESR capacitor and ESC capacitance. This protective circuit effectively mitigates these surges, preventing damage to your drone's components and extending the lifespan of your XT60 connectors. It's a crucial upgrade for maintaining the integrity of your FPV system.

Key Advantages

• Prevents damaging sparks during battery connection

• Protects sensitive electronic components from voltage/current spikes
• Ensures smoother power delivery to ESCs and motors
• Compact and lightweight design for easy integration
• Compatible with popular FPV frames
• Easy to install for enhanced drone reliability
• Cost-effective solution for preventing costly repairs

Technical Specifications

• Size: 16*18mm
• Input Voltage: 3-6S (9-26V)
• Continuous Overcurrent: 30A for 60 minutes
• Weight: 2.4g

Applications

This anti-spark filter is designed for FPV drones, including freestyle, racing, and cinematic builds. It is particularly useful for high-power systems that experience significant inrush current upon battery connection.

FAQ

What is an anti-spark filter and why do I need it for my FPV drone?

An anti-spark filter prevents the damaging spark that occurs when connecting a battery to your FPV drone. This spark is caused by a sudden surge of current into the ESC's capacitors. Using a filter protects your XT60 connectors and sensitive onboard electronics from voltage spikes, extending their lifespan.

Which FPV drone frames are compatible with the iFlight Anti Spark Filter 18x16mm?

The iFlight Anti Spark Filter is designed with an 18x16mm footprint and is specifically compatible with popular FPV frames such as the Nazgul XL5 V3, Nazgul DC5, and the BOB57 Frame Kit. Always check your frame's XT60 connector mounting dimensions.

What are the technical specifications of the iFlight Anti Spark Filter?

This filter supports an input voltage range of 3-6S (9-26V) and can handle a continuous overcurrent of 30A for up to 60 minutes. It measures 16x18mm and weighs only 2.4g, making it a lightweight addition to your drone.

How does this filter protect my drone's electronics?

By suppressing the initial high-current inrush, the anti-spark filter prevents voltage and current spikes that could otherwise damage sensitive components like the flight controller or ESCs. This ensures more stable power delivery and reduces the risk of component failure.
