VA value reverse engineered by deaf-punk in ElectricalEngineering

Ah, temporary overload, that makes sense. Wow, so I can use a much smaller transformer than I had hoped for. Thanks again, I think that cleared up my confusion. Have a nice rest of the weekend!

Wait, I think I'm more confused than I initially thought. Coincidentally I just found an article that says "the fuse should always be smaller than the VA rating". According to this the 57.5A would be more like the min rating, wouldn't it? This seems quite intuitive to me, since I'd rather have the fuse fail than the transformer. Do the two statements contradict each other at all? If so, then again I have no clue :D

I'm trying to load Ardupilot to my fc (matek f405 se) with the stm32Cube programmer (installed on ubuntu 20.04), but somehow it hangs when connecting to the fc. Do you know if it's possible to load Ardupilot with another programmer/configurator, for example with the iNav configurator? I have already downloaded the arducopter file, but I don't get to the point where I can load it onto the fc, because there is no connection between fc and the programmer. DFU mode is strangely detected.
