XL4005 holder

thingiverse

This is a simple enclosure for the DC4005 module I purchased from Banggood. You can find more information about the product here: http://www.banggood.com/5A-XL4005-DCDC-Adjustable-Step-Down-Module-Power-Supply-Converter-p-923600.html. The photo may not be ideal, but it shows the box I built to house the epoxy/resin used for making the module vibration and crash proof. I am using this DC power supply because it is supposed to deliver a 5A step-down regulated output. It will be powering my SP Racing F3 flight controller and servos in my FPV airplane. I printed the box using PLA, attached a heat sink to the chip, and then poured resin into it. The resin was thick enough not to spill out of the end where the wires were cut. I have tested the module and set it to 5v output. The photo shows the module in the box with hardened resin and the heat sink installed in the unfinished fuselage of my Video Aerial System's Specter.
