55mm Racing Propeller Documentation
Introduction
The 55mm Racing Propeller is a high-performance propeller designed for drone racing and high-speed applications. This documentation provides a detailed overview of the propeller's pins and their connections.
Pinout
The 55mm Racing Propeller has a total of 3 pins, which are used to connect the propeller to an Electronic Speed Controller (ESC) or a Brushless Motor Controller. Here is a breakdown of each pin:
1. Signal Pin (S)
Function: This pin is responsible for transmitting the PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) signal from the flight controller to the ESC.
Connection: Connect the signal pin to the corresponding signal pin on the ESC.
Note: The signal pin is typically marked with a "S" or "SIG" label on the propeller connector.
2. Power Pin (+)
Function: This pin provides the positive voltage supply from the battery to the ESC.
Connection: Connect the power pin to the positive terminal of the battery or the positive power rail on the ESC.
Note: The power pin is typically marked with a "+" or "V+" label on the propeller connector.
3. Ground Pin (-)
Function: This pin provides the ground reference point for the ESC and completes the circuit.
Connection: Connect the ground pin to the negative terminal of the battery or the negative power rail on the ESC.
Note: The ground pin is typically marked with a "-" or "GND" label on the propeller connector.
Connection Structure
Here is a step-by-step guide to connecting the pins:
1. Connect the Signal Pin (S) to the corresponding Signal Pin on the ESC.
2. Connect the Power Pin (+) to the positive terminal of the battery or the positive power rail on the ESC.
3. Connect the Ground Pin (-) to the negative terminal of the battery or the negative power rail on the ESC.
Important Notes
Ensure that the propeller is correctly installed on the motor shaft and properly secured before powering on the system.
Verify the correct polarity of the power connections to avoid damage to the ESC or other components.
Always follow proper safety precautions when working with electrical systems and high-speed propellers.
By following these guidelines, you can properly connect the 55mm Racing Propeller to your ESC and ensure reliable operation.

Code Examples

### Example 1: Basic Propeller Control using Arduino

This example demonstrates how to control the 55mm Racing Propeller using an Arduino board. The code assumes the use of an ESC (Electronic Speed Controller) and a brushless motor.

```cpp
const int motorPin = 9;  // Pin for ESC signal
const int throttle = 0;   // Initial throttle value (0-255)

void setup() {
  pinMode(motorPin, OUTPUT);
}

void loop() {
  // Set the throttle value (0-255)
  analogWrite(motorPin, throttle);
  
  // Increase throttle value every 100ms
  throttle += 10;
  if (throttle > 255) {
    throttle = 0;
  }
  
  delay(100);
}
```

### Example 2: Propeller Control using Raspberry Pi and Python

This example demonstrates how to control the 55mm Racing Propeller using a Raspberry Pi and Python. The code assumes the use of a compatible ESC and motor.

```python
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
import time

# Set up GPIO mode
GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)

# Define the ESC control pin
esc_pin = 18
GPIO.setup(esc_pin, GPIO.OUT)

# Set the initial throttle value (0-100%)
throttle = 0

while True:
    # Set the throttle value (0-100%)
    GPIO.PWM(esc_pin, 50).start(throttle)
    
    # Increase throttle value every 1 second
    throttle += 10
    if throttle > 100:
        throttle = 0
    
    time.sleep(1)
```

### Example 3: Propeller Control using ESP32 and MicroPython

This example demonstrates how to control the 55mm Racing Propeller using an ESP32 board and MicroPython. The code assumes the use of a compatible ESC and motor.

```python
import machine
import utime

# Define the ESC control pin
esc_pin = machine.Pin(18, machine.Pin.OUT)

# Set the initial throttle value (0-1023)
throttle = 0

while True:
    # Set the throttle value (0-1023)
    esc_pin.pwm_freq(50)
    esc_pin.pwm_duty(throttle)
    
    # Increase throttle value every 1 second
    throttle += 100
    if throttle > 1023:
        throttle = 0
    
    utime.sleep(1)
```
