iFlight Smart Smoke Stopper (XT60 to XT30)
Never experience the dread of “magic smoke” again on a new build! The iFlight Smart Smoke Stopper is an essential, life-saving tool for every FPV pilot’s workbench. This compact device goes between your battery and your drone to limit the current during the first power-up. If it detects a short circuit or a wiring mistake, it instantly cuts the power, saving your expensive flight controller, ESC, and VTX from permanent damage.
How It Works
Using the smoke stopper is simple. Plug your 2S-6S LiPo battery (with an XT60 connector) into the input, and plug the smoke stopper’s XT30 output into your drone. When you power on:
- Solid Green Light: All systems are normal! The current draw is low, and your electronics are safe to proceed.
- Light Goes Out & Beeping Starts: DANGER! A short circuit has been detected. The resettable fuse has tripped, cutting power. Unplug your battery immediately and troubleshoot your build.
Key Features:
- Prevents “Magic Smoke”: Saves your electronics from being destroyed by short circuits during the first power-up.
- XT60 to XT30 Conversion: Perfectly designed for testing small whoops and toothpick drones that use an XT30 connector with a standard XT60 workshop battery.
- Resettable Fuse: The internal PTC fuse automatically resets after tripping (once unplugged and allowed to cool). No need to replace blown fuses.
- Clear LED & Buzzer Indicators: Provides instant and unambiguous feedback on whether your build is safe or has a short circuit.
- A Must-Have for Builders: An inexpensive insurance policy that can save you hundreds of dollars in replacement parts and troubleshooting time.
