| Model | Pixhawk 5X |
The Pixhawk 5X requires I2C protocol for voltage & current data from power module such as PM02D, analog power module (PM02, PM06, PM07) are not compatible to Pixhawk 5X. Power module comparison chart
It ships with PX4 firmware by default. User can also use Ardupilot firmware by flashing the firmware via Mission Planner or QGroundControl.
Modular flight controller: separated IMU, FMU, and Base system connected by a 100-pin & a 50-pin Pixhawk® standard Bus connector, designed for flexible and customizable systems
Redundancy: 3x IMU sensors & 2x Barometer sensors on separate buses, allowing parallel and continuous operation even in the event of a hardware failure
Triple redundancy domains: Completely isolated sensor domains with separate buses and separate power control
Vibration isolation system to filter out high frequency vibration and reduce noise to ensure accurate readings
Ethernet interface for high-speed mission computer integration
Automated sensor calibration eliminating varying signals and temperature
IMUs are temperature-controlled by onboard heating resistors, allowing optimum working temperature of IMUs
