Wiring a router without a VRM

[JR0405]

Yes, you need one for competition as stated above but I'm assuming you mean at the moment until you get a new one. As obvious by the fact that the PDP directs power straight from the battery, the PDP does not supply a constant 12V which is why the voltage regulator module is necessary. For know I would think that it'd be ok to connect it to any 12V output of the PDP. The radio can handle up to 24V and if there isn't enough power it will just shut off which unlike in a match isn't terribly important.

TL;DR I'd assume it's ok to connect it to one of the 12V outputs of the PDP the radio could shut off if the power drops to low for testing
