High performance STM32H753 Processor with clock speed up to 480 MHz
Modular flight controller: separated IMU, FMU, and Base system connected by a 100-pin & a 50-pin Pixhawk® Bus connector.
Redundancy: 3x IMU sensors & 2x Barometer sensors on separate buses
Triple redundancy domains: Completely isolated sensor domains with separate buses and separate power control
Newly designed vibration isolation system to filter out high frequency vibration and reduce noise to ensure accurate readings
Ethernet interface for high-speed mission computer integration
IMUs are temperature-controlled by onboard heating resistors, allowing optimum working temperature of IMUs
M10 GPS Requires PX4 1.14 & ArduPilot 4.3 or newer.
FC Module + a baseboard is require for this product to function. A FC Module or a Baseboard by itself will not function.
Starting from Nov 21, 2023, pixhawk 6x combo set will come with PM02D-HV instead of PM02D-LV
