pairings; overall, it will match the data requirements of today’s UAVs well, while also reducing the size and weight of the connector-cable pairing.” The system will hence enable greater bandwidth for modern sensor packages (such as multi-sensor gimbals and housings), which must run GBs of data via onboard encoders and radios before such mission data can be transmitted to ground or cloud. The company also showcased a new wired Polarised Nano (PZN) connector integrating magnet wire (also called enamelled wire), which features a significantly reduced insulation diameter over that of the Teflon-coated wire more commonly supplied. Because of this, eight or nine magnet wires can fit in the same space as one or two conventional, 32 gauge wires. To produce connector assemblies with the new wiring, Omnetics purchased new equipment such as laser strippers, and aims to supply the new products to UAV customers as well as for satellite, quantum computer and medical applications. As of the time of writing, the product greatly reduces cabling weight while increasing price owing to processing requirements, although the company anticipates the price dropping to a level similar to that of their more standard wiring as production scales. 3DR exhibited its new Control N1 autopilot module, its latest highly miniaturised flight controller for both small and large UAVs of varying configuration.
