YellowScan Navigator LiDAR Compatible Battery 14.4V 6400mAh

YellowScan Navigator LiDAR Scanner — 14.4V Li-ion Replacement Battery

This 14.4V 6400mAh (92.16Wh) Li-ion battery is a direct replacement for the YellowScan Navigator airborne LiDAR scanning system. The Navigator mounts to aircraft for aerial surveying and terrain mapping missions. This pack matches the original voltage rail and physical footprint: 150.34 x 77.34 x 22.56mm.

• Navigator platform fit: The Navigator draws sustained current through its laser emitter, IMU, and GNSS receiver simultaneously. This pack's cell configuration holds the 14.4V nominal rail steady across that combined load without triggering the BMS undervoltage cutoff mid-scan.
• Bench tested on actual hardware: We cycled this pack under a simulated multi-sensor draw profile matching the Navigator's acquisition mode. The BMS held charge delivery stable through repeated scan-start current spikes without tripping into protection mode.
• Pre-flight calibration cycle: After installing this pack, run a full calibration cycle through the Navigator's system menu before your first survey mission. The instrument maps battery state during calibration — skipping this step causes premature low-battery warnings during the first active scanning session.

BMS cutoff when the Navigator's laser and IMU initialise together

At power-on, the Navigator spins up the laser emitter, IMU, and GNSS module within the same two-second window. That simultaneous initialisation creates a current spike that can exceed the BMS overcurrent threshold on a degraded or partially discharged pack. A healthy, fully charged pack absorbs this spike without issue. If the unit shuts off immediately after the startup sequence, charge the replacement pack to 100% before the next power-on attempt.

Navigator scan data logging cuts out or resets mid-flight

Sustained laser scanning at high point-density settings pulls continuous current for the full acquisition window. If the pack's cells have unevenly degraded, voltage sags under that load and the instrument's internal regulator drops below its operating threshold — causing a mid-session reset or data file truncation. This is distinct from a low-battery warning: the display may still show partial charge when it happens. Check cell balance with a Li-ion cell checker; a healthy pack should show no more than 0.05V spread between cells at rest.
