FAQ
What components are included in the Aocoda-RC F455S V3 Stack?
The F455S V3 Stack combines an F405 V3-series flight controller with a 3055S 8-bit 55A 4-in-1 ESC. The package also includes the connecting cable, capacitor, XT60 power lead and mounting hardware listed with the product.
What battery voltage does the F455S V3 support?
The 3055S 4-in-1 ESC is designed for 3S–6S LiPo batteries. Always verify the voltage requirements of the flight controller, motors, camera, VTX and other connected devices before installation.
What is the current rating of the 3055S ESC?
The 3055S ESC is rated for 55A continuous current per channel. The listed peak-current reference is 65A per channel.
Which MCU does the flight controller use?
The F405 V3-series flight controller uses an STM32F405 MCU. The current V3.2 product specification lists an STM32F405RGT6 processor operating at 168MHz with 1MB flash memory.
Which gyroscope does the F455S V3 use?
The current product specification lists an ICM42688P gyroscope. Some earlier hardware revisions may use ICM42688 or MPU6888 variants, so buyers should confirm the exact board revision before ordering or flashing firmware.
Does the flight controller include a barometer and OSD?
Yes. The listed hardware includes an SPL06-001 barometer and an AT7456E OSD chip for compatible analog FPV video systems.
Does the F455S V3 support Blackbox recording?
Yes. The flight controller includes 16MB of onboard Blackbox memory for flight-data recording, PID tuning, vibration analysis and troubleshooting.
Does the flight controller support Bluetooth configuration?
Yes. Bluetooth Low Energy and compatible wireless configuration through an application are supported. The listed wireless workflow does not require physically pressing the BOOT button.
Which firmware platforms are supported?
The flight controller supports Betaflight, iNav and ArduPilot/ChibiOS. The listed flight-controller firmware target is AOCODARCF405V3.
Which firmware does the ESC use?
The 8-bit ESC is listed with Bluejay firmware. The specified firmware reference is D_X_30_v0.21.1-RC1. Buyers should verify the ESC target and hardware revision before flashing firmware.
Which ESC protocols are supported?
The ESC supports DShot150, DShot300, DShot600, MultiShot and OneShot input signals.
Which receiver systems are compatible?
The flight controller supports compatible ELRS, CRSF, SBUS, FrSky, Futaba, FlySky, TBS Crossfire and DSMX receiver configurations through the appropriate UART or receiver interface.
Does the flight controller support DJI FPV OSD?
Yes. DJI FPV OSD can be connected through an available UART, provided the wiring and firmware ports are configured correctly.
Can two cameras be connected?
Yes. The flight controller provides dual-camera inputs and supports switching between compatible cameras through the configured camera-control function.
What mounting pattern does the F455S V3 use?
The flight controller and ESC use an M3 30.5mm × 30.5mm mounting pattern. The flight controller measures approximately 37mm × 37mm, while the ESC measures approximately 44.5mm × 40.5mm.
B2B Procurement FAQ
Is the Aocoda-RC F455S V3 suitable for OEM FPV drone production?
Yes. Its F405 flight controller, 55A 4-in-1 ESC, 3S–6S compatibility, 30.5mm mounting pattern, Blackbox storage and broad peripheral support make it suitable for compatible racing, freestyle and custom FPV drone projects.
What should buyers confirm before placing a bulk order?
Buyers should confirm the exact FC and ESC revision, gyroscope version, battery configuration, motor and propeller combination, receiver protocol, video system, firmware requirement, mounting space and expected operating current.
Are different gyroscope versions available?
Different hardware revisions may use ICM42688P, ICM42688 or MPU6888 gyroscope variants. Bulk buyers should specify the required version and confirm current production availability before ordering.
What information should be included in a bulk RFQ?
Provide the required quantity, exact product revision, target drone platform, battery configuration, motor specification, receiver type, video system, preferred firmware, delivery destination and any packaging or labeling requirements.
Can the F455S V3 be used as a replacement or upgrade stack?
It can be used as a replacement or upgrade when the frame supports the 30.5mm × 30.5mm M3 mounting pattern and the battery, motors, receiver, video system, wiring and firmware are compatible.
Can GPS, an external receiver and a VTX be used together?
Yes, provided the selected devices are assigned to available UARTs and configured correctly. The flight controller provides five UARTs for compatible receiver, GPS, VTX, Bluetooth and ESC connections.
Does the ESC include a BEC?
No. The 3055S ESC specification lists no integrated BEC. The complete power arrangement and the voltage requirements of every connected device should be confirmed during system integration.
Is private labeling or OEM/ODM support available?
OEM, ODM and private-label availability depends on the supplier, order quantity and customization scope. Buyers should provide estimated demand, branding files, packaging requirements and technical specifications for evaluation.
What documents should be requested for bulk procurement?
B2B buyers should request the latest product specification, wiring diagram, hardware revision information, firmware targets, packing list, quality-control requirements and applicable compliance documentation for the destination market.
