Where can I get a 35mm Power Distribution Board?

[kah00na]

I'm working on building a mini hex but I need a 35mm squad power distribution board. I looked all over my normal hobby sites but can't find one that is reasonably priced. I found a couple in AU but they have $15 for shipping alone. I'd like to find one shipped from the US. Does anyone know where I can get one or have an extra they want to sell me?

Dave on FliteTest YouTube has made a very instructive video about how to connect the ESC together without the need of any power distribution board.

I don't use any board in any of my quad, just colder together the cables or use special connectors ... place a distribution board under the control board is never a ideal solution ... especially if you use a MAG on board.

If you have to use a board: http://www.multirotorsuperstore.com/accessories/afro-power-board.html

Otherwise consider the manifold style that I've started using: http://forum.flitetest.com/showthre...uad-v3-Build-Log&p=99024&viewfull=1#post99024

For my hex, I used a ring-type harness. I went with it primarrilly to keep the wiring along the inside perimeter. The nice aspect , there's no bulky central connection point that needs a ton of solder and heat.

On the negative side, it's impossible to use shrink effectively, so I double coated the connections with epoxy. Liquid Tape would work just as well.
