Vertiq 8108 150Kv Controller
Vertiq 8108 150Kv is an integrated motor and controller with a wide range of velocity-based applications. This integrated motor and controller is the first commercial-grade drone and robotics motor module in its class that comes with an embedded position sensor. This module features an open and closed-loop controller designed primarily to drive propeller loads.The Vertiq 8108 150Kv module can be driven with the integrated PID velocity controller with a second-order polynomial feedforward, which is ideal for propeller applications. This module offers advanced telemetry for motor health monitoring and utilizes the closed-loop motor control technology that helps UAVs change directions, stabilize, and brake four times faster.
The combination of Vertiq’s unique hardware design and proprietary software allows IQ motors to maximize torque output, efficiency, and precision while minimizing motor vibration, cost, and footprint. This module features a voltage controller PWM controller, coast and brake modes, encoder linearization, anticogging, no minimum speed, and active freewheeling. Typical applications include drones, fans, wheeled vehicles, robotics, and gimbals.
