Pixhawk V6X Controller

Pixhawk V6X^® is a new generation of Pixhawk^® designed by CUAV and PX4. It is based on the Pixhawk FMU V6X standard design and pursues the ultimate safety and stability. It adopts H7 double-precision floating-point unit and Cortex®-M3 coprocessor, independent bus and power supply, triple-redundant IMU, IMU temperature factory pre-calibration technology, and dual-redundant barometer design to fully guarantee the safe operation of unmanned system equipment and has rich expansion capabilities. It integrates 100M Ethernet PHY and can communicate with mission computers (onboard computers), high-end mapping cameras and other airborne equipment at high speed to meet the needs of high-end unmanned system equipment.

[!NOTE] Pxiahwk v6X is a pure hardware product; the firmware and program are provided by ArduPilot/PX4 or developed by the user; it is suitable for various unmanned system equipment (such as unmanned ships/submersibles, etc.).
