Hey guys,
I am building some micro drones as part of a mobile wireless sensor network and need some advice on power options. I am planning on using something like 3.7v Li-Po batteries for each device, and would like the devices to be able to self-charge from an induction station. Is this feasible, and can anyone give me any links/advice on such?
My aim is to have each device understand when it needs to charge, locate the nearest station to it, land on a pad and charge itself.
Are the SFE Li-Po options able to do this, do I need specialist chargers, and do I need to isolate the battery from the circuit during recharge?
Thanks for any and all help.
Paul
