This flight controller is a Pixhawk® 2.4.8–compatible, open-source UAV control system designed for multi-rotor, fixed-wing, and VTOL aircraft.
Based on a high-performance 32-bit ARM Cortex-M4 processor, it supports ArduPilot (APM) firmware and provides stable flight control, autonomous navigation, and flexible expansion for research, education, and industrial applications.
With rich interfaces, redundant power design, and compatibility with multiple GNSS modules, it is ideal for both beginners and advanced developers seeking a reliable open-source autopilot platform.
Functional Features
Robust Flight Stability with Advanced Sensor Design
Built-in vibration-resistant design eliminates the need for external damping in most applications. The controller integrates high-quality accelerometers, gyroscopes, and an onboard compass, ensuring stable and reliable flight even in complex environments.
Open-Source Autopilot System with PX4 & ArduPilot Support
Fully compatible with ArduPilot firmware, enabling waypoint missions, position hold, return-to-home, and autonomous flight modes. The open-source ecosystem allows users to customize parameters, develop new functions, and integrate third-party modules.
Redundant Power & Fail-Safe Architecture
Features redundant power inputs, backup power supply, and failover protection. In the event of a primary power failure, the system can safely switch to backup control to enhance flight safety.
Flexible I/O Interfaces for Expansion
Supports a wide range of external devices via UART, I2C, SPI, and CAN interfaces. Easily integrates GPS/GNSS modules, telemetry radios, optical flow sensors, LiDAR, and onboard computers such as Raspberry Pi or NVIDIA Jetson.
Comprehensive Data Logging & Diagnostics
Equipped with Micro SD card support for detailed flight data logging. Logs enable performance analysis, troubleshooting, and post-flight data review for development and optimization.
GNSS Compatibility with High-Performance GPS Options
Supports multiple GNSS modules including u-blox 6M, 7M, M8N, and genuine imported M8N modules. Higher-end GNSS options offer faster satellite acquisition, more satellites, and improved return-to-home accuracy.
