Holybro Pixhawk 6X Autopilot Flight Controller Standard Set (Combo)

This is a Holybro Pixhawk 6X Autopilot Flight Controller Standard Set .

The Pixhawk 6X is the latest update to the successful family of Pixhawk flight controllers, based on the Pixhawk FMUv6X Open Standard and the Pixhawk Autopilot Bus Standard. It comes with PX4 Autopilot pre-installed. Inside the Pixhawk 6X, you can find an STMicroelectronics-based STM32H753, paired with sensor technology from Bosch, and InvenSense, giving you flexibility and reliability for controlling any autonomous vehicle, suitable for both academic and commercial applications.

The Pixhawk 6X’s H7 microcontroller contains the Arm Cortex-M7 core running up to 480 MHz and has 2MB flash memory and 1MB RAM. Thanks to the updated processing power, developers can be more productive and efficient with their development work, allowing for complex algorithms and models.

The FMUv6X open standard includes high-performance, low-noise IMUs on board, designed for better stabilization. Triple redundant IMU & double redundant barometer on separate buses. When the PX4 Autopilot detects a sensor failure, the system seamlessly switches to another to maintain flight control reliability. An independent LDO powers every sensor set with independent power control. A vibration isolation System to filter out high-frequency vibration and reduce noise to ensure accurate readings, allowing vehicles to reach better overall flight performances. External sensor bus (SPI5) has two chip select lines and data-ready signals for additional sensors and payload with SPI interface, and with an integrated Microchip Ethernet PHY, high-speed communication with mission computers via ethernet is now possible.

The Pixhawk 6X is perfect for developers at corporate research labs, startups, academics (research, professors, students), and commercial applications. Holybro offers the Pixhawk Baseboard and the Pixhawk Mini-Baseboard, each with a different form factor and interface.

Note: Currently shipping REV 8, it has 3x ICM-45686 IMU with BalancedGyro™ Technology

Key Design Points

• Redundancy: 3x ICM-45686 IMU sensors (±32g) with BalancedGyro™ technology & 2x Barometer sensors
• 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® Autopilot Bus connector.
• Triple redundancy domains: Completely isolated sensor domains with separate buses and separate power control
• All New advanced durable vibration isolation material with resonance frequency in the higher spectrum
• Ethernet interface for high-speed mission computer integration
• Temperature-controlled IMU board, allowing optimum working temperature of IMUs

All new Vibration Isolation Design

This new vibration isolation design uses same custom-formulated durabile silicone-based isolation material as the Pixhawk 6X Pro, in place of the traditional foam design. Backed by extensive R&D and testing, it offers optimal IMU damping characteristics with resonance frequency in the higher spectrum, perfect for industrial and commercial drone

Note: 

• The Rev 8 Version is support in PX4 1.14.3 release and later. Ardupilot 4.5.0 stable release and later. Ardupilot firmware can be flash via Mission Planner or QGroundControl.
