Description
- PX4-V6 Standard Hardware Design: Compatible with the latest PX4 firmware, including a modified branch with a 500HZ IMU rostopic, ensuring seamless software and hardware integration.
- Powerful Processing and Rich Sensors: Features the STM32H743VIH6 processor with a 480MHz operating speed and 2MB Flash, equipped with dual BMI088 IMUs and an SPL06 barometer, providing reliable support for precise flight control and environmental sensing.
- Extensive Peripheral Interface Support: Offers 7 UART ports, 8 PWM outputs, and USB Type-C, supporting a wide range of external device connections to meet diverse application needs.
- Dual BEC Output Design: With 5V 2.5A and 12V 2.5A power outputs, it can simultaneously power the flight control system and other electronic devices, enhancing the system's power supply flexibility and reliability.
- High Configurability and Expandability: Supports various serial device configurations and protocols, including default support for SBUS and CRSF protocols, as well as VTX support for the DJI O3 Air Unit, offering flexible customization options.
- Compact Design: Measuring only 27 x 32 x 8 mm and weighing 6.5g, it is suitable for various drone sizes, especially for applications sensitive to weight and volume.
- External Compass Interface: Though it lacks a built-in compass, it provides an I2C interface for connecting an external compass, helping to reduce compass interference and improve positioning and navigation accuracy.
