I want to add a 12v accessory to my drone. Is there an 12v power port somewhere on the drone that I can tap into?
 
What about power consumption? The copter is pretty much designed around the power source (battery) I suspect very little would be available for accessories, if any.
 
The system is designed around what are pretty much standard voltages for a multirotor. Motors, ESC’s require nominal voltage for a 4s battery, GPS at 3-4v, video at 12v, landing gear at 12v, RC receiver at 4.8-5v. There are a couple of unused holes in the lower left corner of the ST-16 board but I’ve forgotten what the output was. It is not fused.
 
I should have included the H system stays under s 50A load and unless it’s continuously driving an electric motor the additional load would likely be <1A. That’s just about what the CGO-3+ demands when shooting video with a constantly moving gimbal in tilt AND pan.
